My students favorite part of the day are WHITE BOARDS! Each student uses a white board to draw pictures, write answers, and just give out thoughts and ideas. It is a quick way for me to assess how every student in the class is doing. Teaching math is my favorite time to use white boards. I write a problem on the board, they solve it, hold up their boards, and just like that I know who is needing extra help and who can be challenged. There is a problem with this process, individual white boards are a mess. They need erasers. Students often don't come to class with an eraser so they use their hands or a tissue. They need Expo markers. I ask students to bring 8 Expos at the beginning of the year, but they run out of ink quick. The white boards can be scratched and written on. After only three years with these boards they are looking beat up. When I found out about Boogie Boards, I knew they were my answer. I love the approach of teaching with interaction. I also love a neat and orderly classroom. I am picturing my students with Boogie Boards inside their desks. I will ask them to pull them out and answer the question at hand. No one has to get up and pass out white boards, no one has to ask to borrow an Expo marker, and no one is getting ink all over their hands and clothes.
