Literacy and Learning Centers are a variety of centers around the room
with open-ended activities or discovery based learning opportunities. Most of
the time tasks are process oriented not product oriented. They are language
arts activities but I do include core knowledge learning centers as well,
because often the activity requires more than one subject area. I also meet
with small guided reading groups to develop pre-reading and reading strategies.
