The Magic of Vertical Whiteboards

Help me give my students vertical white boards to use in the math classroom.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Dages's classroom raised $184

This project is fully funded

My Project

I recently attended a professional development opportunity on math engagement for elementary students. During this training, I discovered the magic of using vertical whiteboards in the math classroom. These non-pernament surfaces have been proven to promote a thinking and engaged classroom environment. The classroom naturally becomes more student led through the use of vertical whiteboards.

Vertical whiteboards promote movement, collaborative thinking, engagement, and fun in the math classroom!

I am requesting dry erase posterboards, dry erase markers and erasers, as well as two problem solving activities. With your help, my math classroom will be transformed.
