My Project

In my high school English classroom, we use markers, highlighters, index cards, and board markers every day to keep learning active, visual, and engaging. Highlighters help students identify key ideas and annotate texts during close reading. Markers and board markers are essential for group activities, quick reviews, and brainstorming sessions. Index cards are used for vocabulary practice, exit slips, and creative writing prompts. These simple tools make a big difference in helping students interact with the material, stay organized, and participate fully. Your support brings energy and color to our daily learning!
