Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Using whiteboards and dry erase markers in the classroom can enhance first graders' learning experiences by making lessons more interactive, engaging, and collaborative while also supporting their fine motor skill development and creativity.
Using white boards and dry erase markers in a first grade classroom allows an interactive learning for students.
My students can actively participate in lessons by writing on the whiteboard, which can make learning more engaging and memorable.
My students enjoy hands-on activities. Writing with Expo markers on a whiteboard provides a tangible and sensory experience that appeals to their developmental stage.
First graders receive immediate feedback on their work. They can quickly erase mistakes and try again, fostering a sense of experimentation and risk-taking in their learning process.
Writing with Expo markers on a whiteboard helps first graders develop their fine motor skills. It also promotes collaboration among first graders. They can work together on group activities, solve problems collectively, and share their ideas with their peers, fostering teamwork and social skills.
Nearly all 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
