Centres...take 1

So begins our first 2G centre work. 
During work stations, I'd like the students to engage in curriculum rich tasks. This week we had 5 centres.

#1 Patterning with Bingo Dabbers. Students chose letter pattern cards and used the dabbers to replicate the pattern.
# 2 Making pattern bracelets with a large variety of beads.
# 3 Sorting buttons using Sorting Circles and verbalizing their sorting rule.

# 4 Exploring with i-pads. Students had free choice to play an educational game.
#5 Word Study. Students used a variety of letters to spell out this week's word list.




Curriculum Connection
*represent a pattern in a variety of ways,
*create a repeating pattern by combining two attributes,
*demonstrate the ability to organize objects into categories by sorting and classifying objects using two attributes simultaneously,
*spell high-frequency words and unfamiliar words correctly
