I like to do whole class lessons on the rug. A new easel will allow me to present lessons on the whiteboard to the whole class. Students like sitting comfortably on the rug and learning from there. It is also a more intimate setting that allows me to make sure students are paying attention and absorbing the information. By contributing to this project, you will be helping students improve their attention and providing a place for me to do whole class practice. I like the idea of a 2 sided easel so that I can write a morning message on one side and leave it all day. I can use the other side for the lessons.
