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 Gardners 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. 5.
