Board games are great for classroom centers

Do you have some board games in your closet that no one uses? Bring them to school! Games like scrabble can help student with spelling and phonics.  Other board games help students with critical thinking skills, problem solving, and reasoning skills! You can put them in your reading/math centers.

E.Z.C. Readers from Really Good Stuff

I am not paid to promote Really Good Stuff products but when I love a product, I want to let other teachers know!  This is the E.Z.C. Readers from Really Good Stuff.  They are used for struggling readers and to help other readers focus on the sentence that they need to read.  I use them during my reading centers.

Click on the picture below to go directly to the product on the Really Good Stuff website!

Classroom decoration idea

 

I saw this idea in one of the Really Good Stuff catalogs.  I have the Dr.Seuss theme so I just alternated the color of the bags with the tissues.  I used the hats on the bags!  You can always get your theme colored bags from a party store!
