Math, the Write Way

Help me give my students new dry erase materials to share their thinking.

My Project

My students started the year timid to share and hesitant to try. By creating a safe space, I now have increasing amounts of kids in my class who want to share their thinking out loud or on the board. This has only happened because they can practice independently at their desks, which allows me to check in with them privately. Presently, it is almost overwhelming when I post a problem or ask a question because nearly every students wants to answer it.

This has created a good problem, though, and now I am in need of more supplies as our others have worn out.

I just want to continue this momentum through the remainder of the year. I need new dry erase boards, markers, and erasers to make this happen. We are also in need of highlighters to enhance our notes, and coloring pencils for our math/art projects. My classroom has truly transformed beyond a group of kids who don't seem to care for math or school, and now it is the spot to be! I am so happy to have so many that seem to love to be in my space. I just want to ensure that they have the proper supplies to continue to perform while I have their attention.
