In kindergarten, students are learning to read, write and share their math thinking. A teacher easel will allow for modeling early reading skills, writing and drawing on a large scale. Students benefit from strong modeling techniques including seeing how to point to each word as they read and how to form letters. The easel I chose includes storage space to store markers, pens, colored pencils, highlighting tape and other great tools used for instruction. Finally, the ridge allows for me to rest other boards for instruction on the easel. This is a must-need piece of furniture in my classroom!
