My Project

Each year, I learn more and more as an educator. One of the things I learned a long time ago was just how powerful student practice and error analysis can be. In small group instruction, students are constantly using dry erase boards. For example, when working on word work, students are using boards to decode words. They use their learning of types of syllables to read multisyllabic words. I teach them a variety of strategies using....DRY ERASE BOARDS!

For me, dry erase boards are just as important as pencils to my classroom.

This project will bring not only dry erase boards, but also other supplies that I use to help myself my small group instruction in both reading and math run efficiently.
