White-Boarding, A New Spin On an Old Method

Pictured is one of Mrs. Hegemier's 6th grade math classes using the white board method. Students in the picture are holding up the boards to display their group's answer. Teachers use white-boarding as a means to monitor student responses in a group setting. The teacher is able to determine if the class understands a certain concept or if additional instruction is needed for mastery.
