This hands-on approach allows students to visually represent their thought processes and engage in collaborative problem-solving. By writing equations and drawing diagrams, students can explore different strategies and perspectives, making abstract concepts more tangible. The immediate feedback from teachers and peers fosters a dynamic learning environment where students feel comfortable sharing their ideas and asking questions, thus deepening their comprehension of the material.\r\n\r\nMoreover, the use of markers and boards encourages active participation and boosts confidence among students. As they present their solutions and reasoning to the class, they develop communication skills and learn to articulate their mathematical thinking. This interactive method not only reinforces their understanding of finding and solving unknown numbers but also cultivates a sense of community in the classroom. Students learn from one another's approaches, which promotes critical thinking and collaboration. Overall, this approach transforms the learning experience into an engaging and supportive environment, paving the way for deeper mathematical exploration and mastery.","fullyFundedDate":1729974440119,"projectUrl":"project/writing-and-drawing-makes-learning-fun/8687546/","projectTitle":"Writing and Drawing Makes Learning Fun!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Vanessa Moreno Garrido","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9696036"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_3244","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":648,"numTeachers":41,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":48,"percentWhite":9,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":34,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"15.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":55.1,"schoolId":3244,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Pactolus Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Pactolus Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/pitt-county-schools/pactolus-elementary-school/3244"}
