My students need dry erase markers to engage in guided lessons and during small group stations to enhance learning experiences. We will use Chris Van Allsburg texts to complete an author study.
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
Our school serves students grades Pre-K through 5th. My school is located in an area of Arkansas that could be considered in need of repairs. More than 90% of our students are on a free or reduced rate lunch program. Because money is in short supply, I am always looking for ways to help bring exciting new materials into the classroom!
My students have limited experiences, so projects like these help me make learning come to life.
These experiences will help my students develop a love for learning.
My Project
My students are going to be thrilled to get back to it this year when they see our classroom is stocked and ready with new materials and books! I am requesting dry erase markers, dice, and books for the classroom to help make this year go smoothly. The Expo markers will allow my students to engage in meaningful learning during lessons on the carpet. Students will be able to work on their dry erase boards and I will be able to monitor their progress as they work and provide them with feedback to help them acquire new skills.
Additionally, I am requesting special math dice to engage in various math games throughout the year to make math more engaging and fun!
Math is always more fun when games are involved. The Chris Van Allsburg books I requested will allow me to enhance my reading and writing lessons by providing examples from the books. They will also serve as texts used during his specific author study and students will be able to read them independently after they are used during lessons.
