My Project

One of the many things I love about being a teacher are the "lightbulb moments" - the moments when kids understand a topic. When students are in a small group, it gives them the opportunity to learn in a more intensive way. These materials -- especially the dry erase whiteboards/clipboards and dry erase markers -- give kids an extra level of engagement while in the small group. Pencils and erasers are requested because they will only be in the small group area, which maximizes instructional time.

I want students to succeed & giving my students these small group materials can only help them on their educational journey.
