My Project
Doing math standing up at white boards in randomized groups increases engagement and achievement! Using a model known as "Building Thinking Classroom" by Peter Liljedahl, our students engage with math in daily randomized groups at nonpermanent vertical surfaces.
This way of teaching and learning has revolutionized the way our students interact with math.
Needless to say, we go through a lot of white board markers when 150 students are working day after day. The markers we are requesting are both black and colorful so students can use color coding to show their work and analyze complex problems. Additionally, with sustainability at the center of our school's mission, you can be sure that all of the markers we are using are being recycled!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
