Think. Write. Erase. Repeat.

Help me give my students the tools to make their thinking visible! The thin expo markers are long-lasting and work great for showing mathematical ideas. Hydrogen Peroxide wipes clean our tables and boards without ruining the whiteboard surface.

My Project

My students use the whiteboards in my classroom everyday! They use the whiteboard tables to show individual thinking and get practice for math problems. During group work, students stand at the vertical boards and communicate together to solve problems.

Students are quicker to use whiteboards over paper because they are so easy to erase!

It feels like less pressure for students since it is easy to change what has been written. Plus it allows them to share their thinking more easily when it is visible from across the room. This helps us to learn from one another!

These markers and wipes that are safe for whiteboards will help us continue this daily learning. As markers run out it is essential to have more markers available for students. Wipes that don't ruin the whiteboard surface can be hard to find and help us keep our workspaces clean.
