My Project

What keeps cooperative learning from becoming chaotic in my classroom? Structure, equal participation, and individual accountability! When all my students are actively engaged, there’s no time for misbehavior and learning is multiplied! Individual dry erase boards are essential if you want to foster active engagement.

Better than dry erase boards are reusable LCD Writing Tablets.

No need for erasers or paper towels. No more dried out markers.

One of my favorite cooperative learning activities involving dry erase boards is “Showdown.” This strategy includes all of the elements that make cooperative learning lessons successful. It has a clear structure, students participate equally, and all team members are held individually accountable for their own work.

My students will love these individual LCD Tablets.
