Mrs. Tracy from Smyrna DE is requesting classroom basics through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Nothing Holds Us Back From Showing What We Know!

Help me give my students a way to show their thinking while sitting socially distant all day. They would love their own set of markers and whiteboard stands to communicate in a safe, collaborative way! Thank you!

My Students

I cannot even describe to you how proud I am of my students. They have persevered throughout this pandemic with pride and enthusiasm. My students have shown each other grace and support. I have a student that recently offered to do my makeup because he sees how hard I've worked for them so he wants to do something nice for me. They never complain, but always look out for each other. I'd like to give them an opportunity to be able to express their thinking.

My Project

Due to the fact that our students may not participate in flexible seating or collaborate in typical group work, I needed to find a way to encourage them to participate and show their thinking without always asking them to raise their hand. With the whiteboard stands, they can easily explain their thinking in whatever way fits their creative brain. It can be hard to explain in words what you want to convey mathematically, but with whiteboard stands, they can show what they know and be proud of their amazing and individual brain!

If we end up going 100% virtual again, they can take their whiteboards and stands home and display them on camera for their peers to see!

Thank you for your consideration!
