My Project

Working on vertical whiteboards can increase engagement levels among students. The physical act of standing up and writing on a vertical surface can stimulate attention and focus.

With everyone working on a vertical surface, it's easier for me to monitor students' progress and provide timely feedback.

It also facilitates peer learning as students can see what their classmates are working on.

Research suggests that writing information by hand can improve memory and retention.

The goals of this thinking classroom project are using vertical whiteboards offer a dynamic and interactive learning environment that promotes engagement, collaboration, creativity, and active learning.

What makes my students special is their individuality, strengths, and potential to positively impact the world around them. Recognizing and nurturing these qualities can help unlock their full potential and contribute to their growth and success.

Some of my students exhibit natural leadership qualities. They inspire others, take initiative, and demonstrate strong communication and problem-solving skills.

Each of my students bring a unique set of skills, talents, and abilities to the table. Some may excel in academics, others in sports, arts, leadership, or community service. Embracing and celebrating this diversity can enrich the learning environment.
