So, you might want to sit down for this one:  I don’t use centers in my classroom……. I know, I know, what am I thinking?!  The good news is that I’m trying to incorporate them in my classroom now.  I am going to spend A LOT of time over holiday break putting them together.  But I’m a perfectionist and I want to do it right, so I need your help!



How do you store your centers?  I’m looking for an easy way for groups to grab their center work.  I want everything to be organized and pretty… and inexpensive.


What cheapie supplies can I buy, make, or reuse for my centers?  I’m currently in the process of collecting water bottle caps to use as easy letters:

{I found this cute idea at Kinderpond}

Do you have a cutesy display to show kids which center they should go to on a certain day?  Do you use centers everyday?  How often do you rotate activities (and what are the activities)?  Where do you find the time….?

I guess that’s it for my questions.  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!  And pictures/links would be awesome if you have them handy.  Comment, or you can always email me at [email protected] 🙂

Speaking of centers, I created some letter tiles of my own to print and use in my word work centers: 


You can grab yourself a copy here.  Just print as many copies as you need, cut, and laminate if you want!
