Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Providing my first-grade students with dry erase markers can be beneficial for several reasons:

My first reason is interactive Learning.

Dry erase markers encourage active participation, allowing students to engage directly with the material.

Immediate Feedback: Students can quickly write down answers or practice skills, and teachers can provide instant feedback.

Reusable Surface: Whiteboards are eco-friendly and cost-effective, as they can be reused multiple times without waste.

Variety of Activities: Markers can be used for a wide range of activities, from math problems to creative drawing, keeping lessons dynamic.

Fine Motor Skills Development: Writing with markers helps students develop their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.

Visibility: Whiteboards allow everyone in the classroom to see the work being done, promoting a sense of community and shared learning.

Providing dry erase markers can transform the learning experience and make it more engaging for young students!
