My Project

Third and Fourth-grade exceptional needs students need a large dry erase whiteboard because they are transitioning to more complex, multi-step academic work multi-paragraph drafting, and require modeling. A large, high-visibility board provides the vast spatial canvas required to map out these extensive problems without running out of room, helping students track their logic from start to finish. At nine and ten years old, children learn best through movement and peer interaction; a spacious board allows multiple students to stand side-by-side to collaborate on brainstorming, and actively participate in group activities. This hands-on, shared visual space keeps energetic learners engaged, simplifies abstract concepts through live drawing, and makes mistakes easy to erase, which builds confidence during challenging lessons.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
