Colleagues of mine use dollar store dry erase boards that come with a marker, the kind we used to have on our dorm doors in the previous century. They get them for $1.25 each at local dollar stores and find the price point great in support active learning in their math class.

I’ve used small whiteboards for this sort of thing, too, and found that they work well. Karla

Greetings,
Several threads have mentioned using gallery walks as a way to bring the 4S's to materials teams create, such as text, diagrams, etc. I would like to share with you a variation that I find helpful in some situations.
Index cards can be used instead of large "post-it" boards. Some people find these more comfortable to write on, they are less expensive, and are easily carried around. The student responses on index cards are displayed together simultaneously using a document camera. Teams can then discuss the options at their table and vote on which one they think is best, etc.
This works with up to 6 cards on our system. If there are more than 6 teams, the facilitator could select representative, or random, examples.
I would be interested to learn of other successful variations on this theme.
Regards,
Chris Burns
