Here’s a way to assign your students to reading centres for the day.
I love how easy a system this is. The clothespins can be rotated each day so the students can be cycled through all the centres during the week. It is easy for them to see where they have to go and what needs to be done.
I also like the use of binder clips here. What an ingenious way to maximize the space in the classroom and keep everything organized.
Let’s get back to binder clips.
With a deck of index cards, a whole punch, and a simple binder clip, you can make a portable study device. Your students can take home sight words, spelling lists, and vocabulary words to practise at their leisure.
Do you have any creative ways to use clothespins and binder clips?
