My Project

Studies show vertical workspace increases student proficiency and problem solving skills in math, reading and science. The opportunity to practice problem solving in a safe environment develops students' risk-taking. Working within a group helps students find their voice in the problem solving process and improves collaboration skills. With these vertical boards, students are able to build positive relationships with peers and improve self-efficacy. I am requesting these dry-erase boards for my classroom to help students develop the confidence and ability to become successful learners that will enrich both their academic and personal lives.
