Book excerpt: The Magnetic Tabletop Learning Easel is one of the simplest-yet also most versatile-literacy tools around! No matter what your students' skill level or classroom needs, there's something for everyone, from word and sentence-building to alphabet recognition. The sturdy easel stands alone on a tabletop, and then folds flat for easy storage. Its blank, magnetic write-on wipe-off surface can be used for teacher-led instruction, independent work, and partner activities. For use with Grades PreK-2.
