Great Resource
Customer Rating:
This book contains many great ideas. I teach kindergarten, so wasn't able to use as much as first through 3rd grade teachers could. However, I did get some good ideas that I use. Not a bad price, and the ideas are worth the money.
A Must Have!
Customer Rating:
I would highly recommend this book for anyone teaching primary grades, and integrating literacy centers in the classroom. It is perfect for managing reading groups, as well as a great time-management tool. Full of reproducibles, and helpful tips, it's one of the best teacher resources available. :)
A Basic book for new teachers
Customer Rating:
This book may work if you are a new teacher with no resources and no ideas. If you are a veteran teacher, don't bother. The book is full of worksheets that you could quickly create and are probably already doing in your classroom. Don't waste your money.
A lifeline
Customer Rating:
After 12 years teaching middle school, I am now teaching second grade. This book has become one of my most treasured resources. This clearly and concisely explained the purpose and practical upkeep of 30 learning centers. I have used many of the activities as a springboard for countless other center activities. Don't walk, RUN to get this book.
Excellent Resource
Customer Rating:
I have bought many books recently on literacy centers and this book is by far the best! It gives you background information on the purpose of centers but really focuses on making it work for you. It gives tons of easy to put together center activities and reproducible sheets. By far the most teacher friendly book on centers I now own.
