Our classroom literacy centers are up and running!
When students are finished with their "must do" seat work, they are allowed to go to their assigned center for the day.
Writing Center: students work to complete creative writing assignments. They are encouraged to use their dictionaries as well as proof reading their work.
Phonics Center: students will complete games/activities to reinforce phonics skills such as beginning, middle and end sounds, digraphs, segmenting and blending words.
Reading Center: students will have the opportunity to find a book (right at their level:not to hard not to easy) and read quietly. Ms. Lahey goes to the public library and gets about 30 books (every 3 weeks) to put in the classroom reading center.
Word Work Center: each week there will be a "word of the week". Students will practice writing the word, cutting and gluing it in the correct order and using the word in a sentence. Because we will be going to star lab this month, all of the words/books are about space and constellations.
Poetry Center: Students will read and glue a poem into their notebooks. They will then complete an activity related to the current poem.
*Some centers contain writing pieces which go home with students each day. These papers will not be graded and sometimes are not completed due to time limits on centers.
