Centers are Here!

Centers are Here!!


The students are starting to learn the routines, rules, and activities they can do in Literacy Centers.
It's a bit of a process to learn where to get the activities, how to set up, what do do while you are there, how to hand in work, and how to clean up your work space.  We started with all sorts of activities about words and they did awesome!!  

They can make words using play-dough...


Mini pocket charts can hold words too...


Magnetic letters....



Letter jewels...


Using markers, coloured pencils, crayons, or just an ordinary pencil...





Once they learn each of these centers, your child will be able to choose which activity helps him/her learn the best.  This week they practiced using words from the word wall in the classroom (the word wall has words that are used frequently and words that are difficult to spell).  Eventually they will use their spelling words each week.
