The One Penny Whiteboard
Ongoing, “in the moment” assessments
may be the most powerful tool teachers
have for improving student performance.
For students to get better at anything, they
need lots of quick rigorous practice, spaced
over time, with immediate feedback. The
One Penny Whiteboards can do just that.
©Bill Atwood 2014
To add the One Penny White Board to
your teaching repertoire, just purchase
some sheet protectors and white board
markers (see the following slides). Next,
find something that will erase the
whiteboards (tissues, napkins, socks, or
felt). Finally, fill each sheet protector (or
have students do it) with 1 or 2 sheets of
card stock paper to give it more weight and
stability.

On Amazon, markers can be found as low as $0.63
each. (That’s not even a bulk discount. Consider “low
odor” for students who
are sensitive to smells.)

I like the heavy-weight model.

On Amazon, Avery protectors can be found as low
as $0.09 each.

One Penny Whiteboards and
The Templates
The One Penny Whiteboards have advantages
over traditional whiteboards because they are
light, portable, and able to contain a template.
(A template is any paper you slide into the sheet
protector). Students find templates helpful
because they can work on top of the image
(number line, graph paper, hundreds chart…)
without having to draw it first. For more
templates go to
www.collinsed.com/billatwood.htm)

Using the One Penny Whiteboards
There are many ways to use these whiteboards.
One way is to pose a question, and then let the
students work on them for a bit. Then say,
“Check your neighbor’s answer, fix if necessary,
then hold them up.” This gets more students
involved and allows for more eyes and feedback
on the work.

Using the One Penny Whiteboards
Group Game
One way to use the whiteboards is to pose a challenge and
make the session into a kind of game with a scoring system.
For example, make each question worth 5 possible points.
Everyone gets it right: 5 points
Most everyone (4 fifths): 4 points
More than half (3 fifths): 3 points
Slightly less than half (2 fifths): 2 points
A small number of students (1 fifth): 1 point
Challenge your class to get to 50 points. Remember students
should check their neighbor’s work before holding up the
whiteboard. This way it is cooperative and competitive.

Using the One Penny Whiteboards
Without Partners
Another way to use the whiteboards is for students to work
on their own. Then, when students hold up the boards, use a
class list to keep track who is struggling. After you can follow
up later with individualized instruction.

Keep the Pace Brisk and Celebrate Mistakes
However you decide to use the One Penny Whiteboards, keep
it moving! You don’t have to wait for everyone to complete a
perfect answer. Have students work with the problem a bit,
check it, and even if a couple kids are still working, give
another question. They will work more quickly with a second
chance. Anytime there is an issue, clarify and then pose
another similar problem.
Celebrate mistakes. Without them, there is no learning. Hold
up mistakes and say, “Now, here is an excellent mistake–one
we can all learn from. What mistake is this? Why is this tricky?
How do we fix it?”
©Bill Atwood 2014
The Questions Are Everything!
The questions you ask are critical. Without
rigorous questions, there will be no rigorous
practice or thinking. On the other hand, if the
questions are too hard, students will be
frustrated. They key is to jump back and forth
from less rigor to more rigor. Also, use the
models written by students who have the
correct answer to show others. Once one
person gets it, they all can get it.

Questions
When posing questions for the One Penny Whiteboard, keep
several things in mind:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Mix low and high level questions
Mix the strands (it may be possible to ask about fractions,
geometry, and measurement on the same template)
Mix in math and academic vocabulary (Calculate the area… use
an expression… determine the approximate difference)
Mix verbal and written questions (project the written questions
onto a screen to build reading skills)
Consider how much ink the answer will require and how much
time it will take a student to answer (You don’t want to waste
valuable ink and you want to keep things moving.)
To increase rigor you can: work backwards, use variables, ask
“what if”, make multi-step problems, analyze a mistake, ask for
another method, or ask students to briefly show why it works
©Bill Atwood 2014
Examples
What follows are some sample questions that relate to
understanding multiplication, area, division, fractions, as well as
some multiplication fact work for grade 3.
Each of these problems can be solved on the One Penny
Whiteboard.
To mix things up, you can have students “chant” out answers in
choral fashion for some rapid fire questions. You can also have
students hold up fingers to show which answer is correct.
Sometimes, it makes sense to have students confer with a
neighbor before answering.
Remember, to ask verbal follow-ups to individual students: Why
does that rule work? How do you know you are right? Is there
another way? Why is this wrong?

It’s possible to break this problem: 24 ÷ 3 = 8
into this problem:

Divide (18 ÷ 3) = 6
Now divide (6 ÷ 3) = 2
It’s the distributive
property!
24 ÷ 3 = 8
(18 + 6) ÷ 3 = 8
(18 ÷ 3) + (6 ÷3) = 8
