My Project

Brillant and Vibrant colors offers many educational benefits within a classroom, especially amongst young minds.

The use of color expo markers, caryons and pencils is an amazing way of reaching my scholars in the classroom, especially in math and fundations.

Scholars will be able to come to the rug with whiteboards for guided practice and to record modeled strategies. The markers allow me to see exactly what they are doing, as well as provide an easy place for them to show and share their work. What becomes a problem is the fact that the markers never seem to last, erasers seem to disappear. Crayons and color pencils are great tools for scholars to add indivuality into their work and produce work in a fun way. But once again, crayons may break or disappear. Pencils will get sharpened to the very tip. In my opinion, you can just never have enough tools for scholars to exemplify their work.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase scholars attention and focus. You will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement as they become more motivated and engaged in their learning.
