The use of whiteboards is almost a daily activity in my classroom, especially in math. Using the workshop model in math, students come to the rug with whiteboards for guided practice and to record modeled strategies. The whiteboards allow me to see exactly what they are doing, as well as provide an easy place for them to show and share their work. My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are using their own materials to show their personal thinking. Thank you!
