Centers/Stations Template

This is a very handy organizer and visual to use when doing centers in your classroom. I got the idea from my mentoring teacher and brought it to my classroom last year. Since ELA is such a complex class and often concentrated to fit the 90 minute time frame, I break my centers up into 3 days. That allows the students to get more time in each center. I spend the last 30 minutes of class doing 2 rounds of 15 minutes, but you can set the timer as you please.

I am known as "The Crazy Cat Lady" by my students, so I thought it would be funny to have all of my groups named after famous cats. Feel free to change the pictures and colors to fit the theme of your classroom.

I only put day 1 on this template. To add the other 2 days, you will need to copy the entire template and paste it onto the next pages.
