This is my management board for keeping track of who is where! If you click on the flower in the bottom right it links back to the menu board for selecting what day and rotation time I want.
Numbers 1-3 are for our Literacy times and the 4 is for math "NUMBER" tubs.
These are my word work tubs. I usually switch out the activities in them every 2 weeks. I try to always keep a "Write the Room", "I Spy", "ABC Order", and some type of "Sight Word" activity every single week. I simply change out the activity according to what theme or holiday it is. The students love that it's a "new" game, but it's really just new clip art! I love that they are so independent with these tubs and I can focus on my small group at my teacher table! The other word work activities that I bring in occasionally are: play-doh, pokey pins, a puzzle, CVC word activity, stamps, magnets, Sight word watches, wikki stix, rainbow write........I could go on and on. But the key to this is just to occasionally throw some of these others in because it keeps it fresh, but you also don't want to overwork yourself coming up with new activities!
These are our book boxes for Read to Self and Read to Someone. I let them keep around 3-5 books in there at a time. I also have them keep their writing journals in their boxes for "Work on Writing". The boxes are made out of cardboard and they work okay, but I would suggest using box tape on the bottom because I've had several that collapse and the books fall out. I have written a grant requesting a plastic version of these boxes. (fingers crossed!)
