My Project

I need two electric pencil sharpeners to go on either side of my classroom. I have on average 30 students in my classroom at a time. I want my students to be able to go to the closest pencil sharpener during class, so they wont lose a lot of instructional time or get distracted.

I need a class set of expo markers because I use white boards as a learning and assessment tool.

This is a great tool for me to see which students are struggling with which part of the process. It is also a great fun interactive activity for the students.
