My Project

My first grade students are active and eager participants in class! They love opportunities to interact with the content, and they are super responsible with taking care of our classroom materials.

I need individualized whiteboards and clipboards that will allow students to have materials in hand for our lessons!

This will allow students to directly interact with what we’re learning, and to master the material more deeply.

We will use the whiteboards daily to practice spelling and writing. The clipboards will allow students to write while they are on the carpet or while moving around the room. The pocket chart stand will help me display materials during the lesson.
