Math & Literacy Centers

Here's a peak at some of our Math & Literacy centers we worked on this week:

Word Wall Center: At our Word Wall Center we built our word wall words with paper clips and then used a magnet to move around and pick them up!

Journal Center: We wrote about force and motion experiments we observed throughout the week.


Read to a Friend Center: We used our "Chunky Monkey" to highlight chunks in our shared reading of the week and then practiced it with our friends!


 Math Center: We went on a 3-D shape hunt around the room and noticed that 3-D & 2-D shapes are all around us!

 Craft Center: We made a caterpillar out of 3-D shapes!

Phonics Center- We made -ake word family bracelets!
