Reading Centers

Our literacy block is every morning from 8:00 to 10:00. We start by singing a few songs and then transitioning into reading centers. This week the class has been practicing the different centers. Monday we learned what it meant to work in a "small group". We decided the top two rules were to whisper and share. Today we learned about the spelling center. In the spelling center, the students will do many phonics based activities to expand their knowledge of words. We practiced using our different spelling tools to make all the names in our class. 


For the rest of the week we will be learning and practicing what to do in the writing, reading and computer centers! Next week we will have a chance to rotate through a weeks worth of centers and start to become comfortable with this daily routine.
