Student learning is guided through showing and then trying. When we are in guided reading groups, I would be able to use the easel to show students the concept being taught. With the markers and erasers, students could use individual whiteboards to try it on their own. My students love to be able to use whiteboards to show understanding. Guided reading time is a time where they get to work in small groups with me and this is a time that I want to make enjoyable for them. This donation would help bring fun into our guided reading groups! We thank you in advance.
