My Project

My students are funny, quirky, and lovable, and we have so much fun reading together each day. I would love some mini white boards to support reading comprehension strategies for my 8th graders, along with sustainability. As we come together as a class to read, my students often have big ideas, a-ha moments, and questions about the story. We have always jotted down these ideas on Post It notes, but as we all know, that uses a lot of paper. Small white boards, markers and writable cover sheets will let my kiddos share their ideas and learning while simultaneously conserving paper.
