I teach K-5th grade ESL in NYC. I have Russian, Arabic, Spanish, Urdu, French, Chinese and Hebrew speakers. Our classroom is a converted office with old chalk boards that are worn.

A whiteboard is a crucial teaching tool and there are no funds with which to buy one. Our funding is for classroom materials/books and it is very limited.

I need a whiteboard easel like the one in the photo. We do small group instruction and really need a board the children can see up close.

ESL is a subject that requires visuals and an easel will help me engage my students in learning!
