My students need dry erase boards, markers, and erasers to provide them the ability to work on problems individually during both our small group and whole group times.
The school I teach at is located in Janesville, Wisconsin, in a lower income part of the city. My classroom is a diverse environment with students coming from varying family backgrounds. Each morning my students come excited for the day and ready to participate in each lesson. We start the day with breakfast, where there is an endless stream of exciting news to share. Even as the day continues, there is never a moment where my students are not squirming to share some news. I want that excitement to continue each day. My goal is to do that by presenting engaging lessons and creating a positive and engaging environment.
My Project
My students love writing their own work down and being able to show what they are able to do. I use whiteboards every day, but I am limited on the number of clean and usable white boards. I also do not have enough for my whole class, if I wanted to do an activity with all my students. My erasers are rags, and are quickly falling apart. My markers also run out of ink quickly due to the amount we use them. Each day my students ask if we are going to use the whiteboards during the lesson, and if I tell them no, they are a little disappointed. Using these materials is one way I see how each student is doing. Having these new materials will help engage them in their learning!
