Literacy Centers: Sentences

Description

These kindergarten literacy centers are hands-on learning that you can use at ANY TIME of the year.  This set of sentence centers offers 10 individual practice sets for independent center time.  You will love these non-seasonal, low prep activities!

Adorable themes keep students engaged but you don’t have to worry about matching your centers to seasonal themes.

Clear student directions with visual “I CAN” cards for each task will keep your students working independently during center time.

How do these kindergarten literacy centers differ from others?  These literacy centers offer a multitude of ways to practice sentence writing and building.  Each set will offer 8 – 12 hands-on tasks for the students to complete.  Our goal here is to never hear, “I’m DONE!” during center time.   We want to give students plenty of opportunities to build and practice sentence writing.

Additionally, these literacy centers are not tied to a season so you can rotate these short vowel word families literacy centers and anytime during your kindergarten year!

You may decide to have students spirally review sentence writing all year!  These center activities will keep these essential kindergarten skills current and ongoing!   Practice makes permanent!

Here is what you find in this set of 10 sentence centers for kindergarten.

• Each center has 8-12 questions that provide lots of practice!
• “I Can” card which provides visual directions that emergent readers can use independently
• Student response sheet

What are some other ways to use kindergarten literacy centers?   These activities were created for kindergarten students to use during center time.  However, you can also use them as morning work, small group instruction, interventions, or even an assessment!  Some teachers send a set of centers home to be used as a homework activity.
