My Project

Using whiteboards is almost a daily activity in my classroom, especially in math interventions. Using the workshop model in math, students come to the small group with whiteboards for guided practice and to record modeled strategies. The whiteboards allow me to see exactly what they are doing and provide an easy place for them to show and share their work. What becomes a problem is the fact that the markers never seem to last, erasers seem to disappear, and the whiteboards slowly become stained from frequent use. When something goes awry, students know they must leave the small group quietly to get a new marker, eraser, or the last choice, pencil and paper. That is why we need a dependable sharpener when our dry-erase marker dries up. Even though they are great about doing this, it is distracting for many of my students who have focusing issues, and they miss important instruction from either myself or another interventionist.

By donating to our project, you will not only help improve and increase student attention and focus but also, ultimately, increase their academic achievement.

Students can utilize folders to keep all of their work and track data progress. With the other folders, they can create portfolios to share with parents during conferences.
