Markers for Learning.

Help me give my students the ability to continue with vertical white board activities. These activates as very interactive and based in cooperative learning. They require the constant uses of dry erase markers for every group.

My Project

The COVID-19 pandemic has fundamentally transformed the landscape of education worldwide. The abrupt shift to remote or hybrid learning models has posed various challenges for students, including disruptions to their social-emotional well-being and changes in academic engagement. The requested donation of dry erase markers can directly address these challenges by providing a tangible and versatile tool to support both social-emotional and academic learning during and after the pandemic.

Dry erase markers on vertical whiteboards provide a means for students to express themselves visually.

This can be crucial for those who might find it challenging to articulate their feelings verbally, allowing them to communicate and share their emotions in a non-threatening and creative way.

The interactive nature of vertical whiteboards, facilitated by the donated markers, encourages collaborative activities. Students can work together, fostering a sense of connection and teamwork that is vital for social-emotional development.

Personalized Reflection:

Whiteboards offer a personal space for students to reflect on their emotions, experiences, and goals. This reflective practice, facilitated by the use of dry erase markers, supports self-awareness and emotional regulation, essential components of social-emotional learning.

The markers enable teachers to incorporate interactive assessments, quizzes, and collaborative projects, maintaining a sense of academic rigor and engagement in virtual or socially distanced classroom settings.

In summary, the donation of dry erase markers directly addresses the multifaceted challenges brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. By supporting social-emotional expression and communication and enhancing the adaptability of academic learning environments, these markers become valuable tools for educators and students navigating the complexities of education during these unprecedented times.
