Spotlight on 1st Grade Centers
We love CENTERS at our school! Here is a spotlight on one of our 1st Grade classrooms! We have the BEST teachers ever!
In Mrs. Dunmeyer’s 1st grade centers, she has used a very wide variety of centers activities. Her class has 13 different centers activities that the students rotate between. Some of the students’ favorite centers include:
– Banger! (apick-up-sticks game using Fry’s Word Phrases) – Doggy Drop (students throw a dog stuffed animal onto a $1 shower curtain covered in words. The students must read the word that the dog falls onto in order to score points.) – Monster Mash (students use cute flower-covered fly swatters to swat “word monsters.” They must read the word first!) – Monster Munch (students read and sort words by “feeding” them to monsters (bags). Each monster has a taste for a specific word type, such as -igh, -ed, and -ough words.) – Lilly Pad Leap (students place lily pads covered in sight words on the floor, and, as they read them, they leap from pad to pad)Thanks Mrs. Dunmeyer for sharing these great Learning Center Ideas with us!
