My Project
Students lost 2 years of in-person learning and the average students' skills and understanding of mathematics has fallen dramatically. Few self-directed students came out of pandemic fine, but the majority lack basic multiplication skills and are more apathetic to math than before. To rectify this, our school has begun using 'Thinking Classrooms Strategies' Dr. Liljedahl, to promote engaged, active learning, communication and critical-thinking in the classrooms rather than just lectures and copying notes. We have begun to see improvements so much so other interested schools have sent teachers to come observe us. The teachers were impressed with the engagement levels, self-directed and critical thinking of even the weakest of our students. In my class there are 3 whiteboards on the walls but students are crammed together which hinder them to stay in their groups and on-task. It would be beneficial to have more whiteboards so the students are spread out but with no more walls, they would need to be portable so they can be put away when not in use. Having 3 more would be enough for my smaller classes but 4 would cover for my largest classes this year. When graphing comes up, too much time wasted and messes created just to draw a decent XY grid. Having a prefabricated dry erase grid that can be attached and removed as necessary will help with reducing the downtime and keeping student work neat. I will need 10 groups worth, thus the 2 packs of 5 would cover them all. Thank you very much in advance.
