Abstract
This invention relates to an educational board teaching tool for teaching young children or persons with learning disabilities the skill of applying information in a specific, desired position to an envelope, letter, box, or other information-receiving element. The invention comprises a board having a top compartmentalized surface. Some of the compartments include templates which guide an information receiving element into its desired position. The templates also retain the element in position and guide the placement of information onto the element. The educational device of the present invention may also include retaining means for retaining the board on a work surface. Preferably, the retaining means includes a retaining rib on the bottom surface of the board which fits into a complementary groove on a work table or work station at which the board will be retained.
