Mimio electronic whiteboard and the associated software.
A large whiteboard to use to project the Mimio screen onto
and to write comments on. Also can print copies of the Mimio
work done in class as well as saving it for later use.
Handouts related to the identification of terms, exponents,
coefficients, constants, variables, expressions and equations
would be needed.
Handouts identifying Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences
A magnetic whiteboard and the magnetic letters which little
kids play with in their little alphabet-reader toys. Use the
magnetic letters to demonstrate the concepts of terms,
coefficients, variables, exponents, expressions, and
equations. Have the students demonstrate their grasp of the
understanding of the concepts related to terms using this
magnetic whiteboard.
