Graphing in a Thinking Classroom

Help me give my students x-y coordinate grids that they can use on our vertical white boards.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Torvinen's classroom raised $681

This project is fully funded

My Project

I have vertical white boards that my students enjoy using, as they are up and out of their seats collaborating on math tasks.

The x-y coordinate grids will help my students learn to graph while at the vertical white boards.

I have small boards they can use at their desks, but with 90 minute blocks it is so important to get them standing and learning. The materials on this list, also including cardstock, highlighters, and pens, will help support the learning of my students. Collaborating and discussing are so important in math and this project will help my students become more proficient.
