They have made learning more interactive and fun, while also building student confidence.\r\n\r\nThese whiteboards also allow me to quickly and easily check for understanding. I can see student responses in real time, provide immediate feedback, and adjust my instruction to meet their needs. This has made a meaningful difference in our classroom and has helped me feel accomplished as an educator knowing I can better support every learner.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has had a lasting impact on our classroom community.
