Rolling Whiteboards For A Thinking Classroom

Help me give my students a place to do their math thinking. According to studies, using a vertical non permanent writing space produced better results over using a notebook to have students work through their thinking.

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 Students

My students are sweet, curious and full of great ideas! They absolutely love hands-on, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to use their ideas to come up with solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and collaborate with each other in order to grow both personally and academically.

Year after year when I have students reflect back on the best things they did in class, it comes up that working in groups collaboratively is their favorite activity!!

However, the supplies are so expensive and my students come from hard working families with limited resources.

Giving students the opportunity to work together and collaborate is one of the skills I like to provide for students to prepare them for college and careers in our 21st century.

My Project

In the book, Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Peter Liljedahl did research regarding where students did their best thinking. His study showed that students spent more time on task and were faster to start a task using a vertical non permanent writing surface to do their thinking over using a notebook.

I would like to turn my classroom into a thinking classroom.

Besides working in teams of 3 and collaborating, all students in the room can see what the other groups are doing allowing for knowledge mobility between teams.

My classroom has 2 walls that are full of windows and lower shelves which won't allow for attaching whiteboards to the walls. I would need these rolling white boards in order to roll them out when we are using them and roll them to the back of the classroom when not in use.

Thank you for your consideration in advance!
