Math Markers

Help me give my students supplies like dry-erase markers and erasers for math.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Meeks's classroom raised $293

My Project

My students love math! Many of them say their favorite time of the day is small group math. Sometimes students write with pencils and paper, and sometimes they write on boards and on the table to draw pictures and solve problems. They love using dry-erase markers because they can quickly erase and learn from their mistakes. I also have them use dry-erase markers daily to practice their addition and subtraction math facts in their morning folders.

Our class uses mechanical pencils and dry-erase markers daily!

These supplies will help me stay organized and provide students with markers in fun colors for our math lessons.
