Each student gets their own personal whiteboard and have loved getting to keep them in their desks. \r\n\r\n Our rotating whiteboard has made such an impact in our daily phonics lessons. We are able to use it as a whiteboard or a chart paper stand, and it is so easy to roll around the classroom. Having this tool has made instruction more clear and more effective!

Also, I am so excited that I can incorporate new books to introduce new skills and also celebrate national holidays.
