Who wants to bring back hands-on centers for students? ๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ
I know that I sure do!
Yes, distance learning has become a norm during this pandemic, and will continue to be in those districts who are remaining at home, but I am ready for my children and my students to be able to practice skills in hands-on activities instead of only through technology. ย So I started thinking about how this could be accomplished…
Also, for those of us who will be back in the classroom… our small group centers are going to have to take on a whole new look. ย Our students aren’t going to be able to “share” materials right now, or rotate through hands-on stations practicing math and literacy skills. ย But we also don’t want them in class doing paper pencil practice, or holding a tablet all day either. ย How do we solve this?
The dilemma of giving our students and children hands-on learning right now is a big one! ย But, I think that I may have a solution for you… ย TA-DA!!! – No Prep 1:1 Centers for Virtual Learning
No Prep 1:1 Centers for Virtual Learning
We have created a variety of No Prep 1:1 Centers for Virtual Learning that practice a wide range of math and literacy skills. ย And BONUS… they only use one kind of manipulative! ย You simply print the activities you want your students to practice, add in the needed manipulative, and either hand to the student in class, or send home to practice.
