The whiteboards quickly became a favorite during our reading and vocabulary lessons because students could write, erase, revise, and share their thinking without worrying about getting the \"right\" answer the first time. We used them to break down unfamiliar words, practice vocabulary, and explain our thinking. The magnetic tiles also gave students a fun, hands-on way to take a brain break while continuing to build creativity and problem-solving skills. Seeing their excitement when they were able to use the new materials made learning feel like something they wanted to be part of.\r\n\r\nThe snacks made a difference, too. Having a quick snack available gave students an opportunity to refuel and return to learning ready to participate and focus. As we worked on vocabulary and reading skills, these resources helped students build their word knowledge and become more confident when sharing their ideas.
