We were able to practice on the white boards and use the dry erase markers. I ma de the sticky sheets into boards and hung up on the wall. Most of my students are bilingual and visual learners because of the language barrier( some of them are new comers who just moved to USA) . The boards definitely helped them practice math consistently. I had students reteach to each other by utilizing the boards( including their work samples in the pictures. I also had them model problems building confidence and skill set to present their mastery over the math topics. I achieved 60% increase in MAP scores with the help of the tools within mid year assessments.
