About this title

Synopsis

This cutting edge book contains strategies, tips and examples to get the most mileage out of using dry erase response boards - powerful tools that instantly engage all the students in the classroom. Every science, math, social studies, english, foreign language, ESL, bilingual or reading teacher in elementary, middle or high school could benefit from using dry erase boards and from reading this book. In this book the author contrasts the typical classroom in which teachers pose questions while most of the class sits passively in place (with only a few students actively answering), with a dry erase board classroom in which all students are answering questions and engaged at much, much higher levels. This book is a how to and why, for using dry erase boards when each student has a board, and also for using larger boards when students are working in small groups on activities, labs or discussions. The many advantages of using individual boards and small group boards are detailed, with strategies and tips for obtaining maximum impact. The author also provides an introduction to using graphing dry erase boards with students and some of the problems students have with graph construction and interpretation. Whether you are thinking about using dry erase boards for classroom instruction, or have just started using them, or have used them for some time, this book is of considerable value to all as using any of the many tips and strategies described within can elevate classroom instruction to higher levels and toward maximizing student engagement in the classroom.
