My Project

My students spend 40 minutes a day in their reading centers. We practice the previous learning skills while I pull reading groups. Students work in small groups and use a variety of tools. I want to provide them with some additional support.

Please help me give my students organization bins, pencils, dry-erase sleeves, and recording buttons so that their center activities can reach their full potential.

I will use the organizational bins to organize all of their reading materials for the current skill they are working on. The dry-erase sleeves will allow multiple students to practice at the same center without needing to reprint.

I will record directions for each activity using the recording buttons. This will eliminate students interrupting small group reading lessons for center directions.

My goal with this project is to make centers more enjoyable and accessible for my students.
