In the past an easel has been essential for my lessons. It presents itself as a focal point when we are learning on the rug. In my classroom I do not have any white boards in the front, so this makes it nearly impossible to give meaningful lessons without a space to present information and show examples.
Without an easel, students don't have the space to practice with examples before heading off to do work on their own. This is a very important step because it helps clarify what the task is and also give students a chance to make mistakes and learn from their peers.
