Literacy Centers Rotation

Every year I find myself tweaking the way I do my Guided Reading centers.  I know it's necessary because each group and combination of students works differently, so what works one year may not work the next.  This year I changed up the way I did my Literacy Centers.  I have a total of 10 centers (5 of which are the weekly staples - Spelling, Independent Reading, Writing, Buddy Reading, and AR).  Students pairs do 2 centers a day, switching centers half way through our Reading time.  The new way of doing centers is working really well this year, and I owe it in part to my friend Katie over at Dishing It Out!  I tweaked the way that she and my other friend The Lesson Plan Diva do their centers to come up with a way that suits my own class.  Click on the link below to see how Katie (1st) and Courtney (K) do their Literacy Centers rotations!
