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

I am currently a middle school special education teacher. I teach in a high needs New York middle school. The focus of my classroom is to create life-long learners. My students have a variety of learning disabilities and the classroom would benefit from a dry erase board.

The majority of the students in my school are struggling financially.

Some of our students even reside in shelters. Most students qualify for the state's free or reduced meal program. Often times, the students come without the necessary materials to succeed in school. My school has lost $1 million in the recent budget cuts and teachers are no longer able to personally give each student the resources they desire.

My Project

Dry erase boards are generally very helpful in the classroom because they allow one to present information in a very animated fashion. Not only will I be able to write down information as I speak, I can sketch pictures, note important points, and last but not least I can color code important details or information. Dry erase boards are taking the place of black boards in many school rooms because they are more versatile and allow the teacher more options. Using markers does not generate the dust that comes from using and erasing chalk. Many of my students are asthmatic and allergic to chalk dust and this is an awesome alternative.

I desperately need a white board for my classroom.

The markers also do not smudge like chalk, which is a benefit. Whiteboard ink markings are less susceptible to external factors, such as water, because the ink adheres in a different manner than chalk does to chalkboards. Dry erase boards are also easy to read from a distance, where some people struggle in a classroom environment to read a blackboard. Please support my project.
