My Project

A new easel will help engage students during direct instruction time, and will let them practice their skills independently on their own.

This will be the main hub for our classroom providing a place for check-ins, schedules, and learning activities.

They will be able to use the story board to retell stories that are read to them using felt pieces. This will help build their literacy skills, both with adult support and independently.

The magnetic side will be used for letter cards, rhyming words, and counting. We will be able to display items for students to manipulate to demonstrate their skills and mastery of objectives.
