February Centers (HUGE FREEBIE)

Well look who just showed up!  Yep….February!

I blinked and January flew by and February swooped right in.

With my crazy and hectic schedule….I didn’t get my February literacy centers out early….  but they are DONE!

I did a Valentine’s theme, so I only created FIVE literacy centers.  I mean…. you don’t want hearts and flowers and tons of pink for the entire month.  There are some other great holidays and themes that tag along with February!

I also wanted to share a little bit about how I store my centers when we are NOT using them 🙂
(Trust me…. it’s nothing fancy… just simple!)

– – – – – –

So I printed and prepped all of my Valentine Literacy centers today (or my girly centers as some of my boys like to call them!) (Although I am sure they will LOVE doing them next week!)

Here is a quick look at each of them!

Center (1) – “Sweet Sentences”  – Students are sorting telling and asking sentences!

Center (2) – “Long Vowel Love Bugs” (matching pictures with silent e & /ee/)

Center (3) – “Love Letters” – sorting picture cards to the “BLENDS” and “DIGRAPHS” mailbox!

Center (4) – “Cupid’s Complete Sentences” – sorting sentences that are complete and incomplete.
Center (5) – I Heart Contractions
So there you have it…. my FIVE literacy centers!  
Random note – When I create my centers…. I really try to make them the most user-friendly when trying to prep!  I always send the entire sheet through the laminator and THEN cut out the pieces.  I always create my center cards to where you simply cut and they are ready! (boxes are attached!)
When I store my centers, I ALWAYS include each of the center pieces, title/directions card, and the recording sheet.
I place each parts of the center into the large manila envelopes!  Sometimes I use the center title card and place onto the envelope to laminate, but usually I’m last minute and just write!

I have clear plastic bins for each season of the year…. and they are filling up quick!  
(Back to school / Fall centers)
(Christmas / Winter (snowmen, etc…))
(Winter (valentines/presidents day)/ Spring)
(End of Year / Summer)
I am sure I will need to start adding additional tubs…. these are only my Literacy 🙁
