Little Lapboards

Help me give my students lapbaords to help support early writing and math skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Lewis's classroom raised $299

My Project

Kindergarten is the BEST! Five year olds love of learning is infectious. The growth that they make in just one year never ceases to amaze me. Kindergarten students love using markers and lapboards to write and draw on. We use these boards EVERY DAY during whole and small groups. After multiple years and hundreds of students, they have become pretty worn down.

Help restock our classroom with lapboards that aren't falling apart!

We need new lapboards that are double sided and magnetic. We will use the lined side for writing and phonics. The blank side will help us during math and problem solving. And being magnetic will allow us to use these boards during small group time.
