Customer Reviews

Great Teacher Resource!

Includes all kinds of literacy center ideas and posters to make set up a breeze! Excellent resource to have available.

Excellent book

This book was teacher friendly and a great resource. It shows how to easily set up and maintain literacy centers. The actual reading is only about 45 pages, the rest of the book has resources for teachers to set up the centers.

Useful and beyond

Let's just say this. I've been teaching for 10 years. I have an outstanding professional dev. library at my school, and I wanted my own copy of this book. It's that useful. You won't want to just read it. It's a book you can use again and again.

Excellent Resource!

I have purchased many resource books on Literacy Centers in the past few years. This is the best by far! It is exactly what I've been looking for to get my literacy centers going correctly. I teach 1st grade and I am excited to start using the ideas in this book. They are explained very well and the centers are simple. I feel they will get the kids reading, writing and thinking on their own. Great purchase!

Awesome Book!

If you want to create independent thinkers and readers in your classroom...This is the book you are looking for! Great ideas to incorporate in your centers. I have used most of the ideas in my first grade classroom.
