Currently I am using a bulletin board for my Wilson Fundations instruction. Wilson Fundations letter tiles have magnets on the back which do not attach to the bulletin board at all. I am currently using a pocket chart to organize my letter tiles. However, it does not leave me much room to build words. It also does not allow easy access when the students are interacting with the letter tiles. Having a similar style of board that matches my students, will help with learning transfer. Students will move letter tiles using magnets which will be what their classmates are also completing at their seats as well.
