Rethinking The Whiteboard: Building Collaborative Classrooms With mcSquares

The Description

Traditional whiteboards have been part of classrooms for decades. In my classroom there is emphasize hand-on learning and collaboration. This year I want to implement the mcSquares Whiteboard System to ensure that my students are able to express their creativity while also building a collaborative environment that allows every student to take part of the learning.

mcSquares are individual whiteboards that snap together using mounting brackets that will allow every one of my students to join in on the learning process, answer questions, or draw diagrams. When completed, every student can use the magnets on the back of the individual mcSquare to display their answer along with their peers’.

No longer is the whiteboard just a place for me to stand and teach, but a place where my students can learn from each other. If this sounds like a learning environment you would’ve liked to been in, please consider a small investment for my classroom.

Here is the breakdown in cost for fundraising for mcSquares

  • mcSquares - $1,900.00
  • Preferred Partner Program (13%) - $312.66
  • PledgeCents Platform Fee (5%) - $120.25
  • Processing Fee (3%) - $72.15
  • Total - $2,406.00 (rounded up to the nearest dollar)

Back Up Plan

If I do not meet my goal I will purchase...copy paper, composition books, binders, and other school supplies for my students.
