ALL ABOUT CENTERS


Centertime is not just about having fun.  It is a time when students can create, explore, read, write, share, build, draw, and learn.  Students look forward to this special time of day when they can pick a center of their choice and work with a partner to do something wonderful.  These future scientists are examining seashells at the science table.  Students are working at the computer learning about time and money which is our math focus this month.  Students love to write original stories on a number of topics in the writing center.  They will have the opportunity to read their books to the class and earn a Caldecott Honor Award for great artwork or a Newberry Award for great writing.  The Lego Center is always a fun favorite and a chance to improve those fine motor skills.  Of course, kindergartners love to build and here are two of our budding architects showing off their structure.
