Part of the school day is taken up by centre work. During the literacy block in the morning the students spend a good portion of the 100 minutes a day working on centres while Ms. Raniwsky and I are doing guided reading. Ms. Raniwsky is a former teacher and principal that volunteers twice a week to do guided reading with the students. Students that are not doing guided reading are working on centre activities such as read to self, listening to reading, writing, word work, phonics pocket chart activities, write the room or iPad work on sight words. The students rotate through the centres with their partner each day. During the math block the students also rotate through math centres with their partner. Each math centre students are practicing various math related skills such as addition, subtraction, number recognition, number writing, graphing, and/or measurement. Even though the time is short the students are learning not just math or literacy skills but also how to work with a partner. Congratulations to Aleah who was awarded the Journey to Holiness award for Belonging.
