The dry erase markers will also be used daily during math lessons, skill practice, and classroom review games where students can quickly share their thinking.\r\n\r\nWhen students first see the materials next year, they will be thrilled and excited to use them. The board games for indoor recess will give students positive opportunities to build friendships, practice teamwork, and problem solve together during indoor recess days. Many students will feel more prepared and confident having access to organized classroom supplies and learning tools that help them fully participate each day. The prize box items will also help motivate students and celebrate their hard work, growth, and positive choices throughout the school year.\r\n\r\nAs we move through the school year, students will continue using these resources during collaborative projects, reading groups, and hands-on math activities. One of our upcoming classroom projects will involve students researching topics they are passionate about and creating presentations to teach their classmates.
