Help me give my students an easel for whole and small group learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Meeks's classroom raised $251

This project is fully funded

My Students

I teach third grade in a high-poverty school in Georgia. I serve students with various abilities, including gifted, intellectual disabilities, emotional disturbances, autism spectrum disorder, and specific learning disabilities.

Many of my students are far below grade level.

Despite the challenges, my third graders are very enthusiastic learners who particularly love reading and science. They are a group of hardworking, kind kids who are excited about school and love learning new things. I want to give them the best chance possible.

My Project

We need an easel to improve student learning and engagement! The classroom easel will be the hub for learning in our math talks and creating anchor charts. It will be used as a place to display anchor charts and a whiteboard for teacher-led instruction and student participation. The dry-erase markers will help us all show our work.

The easel will make our whole group learning space more functional and enjoyable.

The large board will allow all students to view the learning materials and engage. The easel can be stationary or move easily on wheels so it can be used in whole or small groups.
