Literacy Centers

Every morning we do literacy centers in our room while I'm pulling reading groups to my reading table for small group guided reading groups.  I wanted to share with y'all some of the activities we do during literacy centers so you can have snapshot of our mornings in room 1412!
We build words using magnetic letters and sounding words out.

We sort words by ending sounds

We also work on ending sounds by using clothes pins to clip on the letter that matches the ending sound of the picture on the card.

We match simple CVC words to pictures.

We use a pocket chart to help sort pictures into nouns and verbs.

We listen to stories being read to us on leap pads, iPads, and the computer.  Www.tumblebooks.com is one of our favorite places to read new books online!

And our last center rotation is the smart board where we practice building words and letter sounds.
