Small Group Rotation Schedule
Sample
This is how I rotate through
small group instructional time. Each group in my class contains between 5 and 8
students. Each small group rotation lasts about 15 to 25 minutes. The Small
group work stations change daily Monday through Friday. The students get to
choose which small group station to work in. My small group tasks contain the
following subject areas: math, literacy, writing, and science.
This is separate from
interest areas which are: dramatic play, sensory/science, music, blocks, art,
technology, math, and library.
FREEBIE! Click on the link below which will take you to my Teachers Pay Teachers Store. Then click on the PREVIEW link. The PREVIEW contains (6) color group lists for you to fill out in Adobe Acrobat. If you like what you see please leave me a comment good or bad. This way I can improve the materials I create for not only my classroom but for others.
Center Rotation Schedule Sample
This is how I rotate through
centers or “interest areas.” I have labeled each center and given the center color
identification. This way when I describe centers, I can use both color and
name. It’s also easier for little ones to find the right center by giving them
multiple ways to view labels. I rotate downwards and then back up. Not all
centers are open every day but a majority of them are.
I have made individualized
name tags for each student. Each student has their own unique name tag to help
them identify their name in print. The package contains 24 personalized name
tags. Use Adobe Acrobat to type the names in. Don’t worry, the text
automatically resizes to fit the space. I attach the names to a plastic
clothespin with a hot glue gun. I find the plastic clothespins last longer than
the wooden ones. Also, if you need more than 24 personalized name tags with
numbers the last 2 pages contain both editable numbers and names.
NOTE: Instead of having a
“computer center” I used a technology center, to include the use of tablets
and/or SMARTBoard as a center.
