Geography Centers, Grades 4-5 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My children absolutely loved working on this! They made the centers themselves (laminated and all) and then could not wait to actually get started on them. To be able to work on their own the cover recommends 4-5th grade, but with a parent a 3rd grader could do several of them. There are 12 File Folder Centers. Titles include...The Fifty States; Regions of the U.S.; North America Quiz; A World Puzzle; Mystery Countries; Looking at the Globe; Parts of a Map; Kinds of Maps; A Map Grid; Landfforms on Earth; Bodies of Water; and Time Zones of the U.S. There is a direction page to tape to the back of the folder (this tells how to make the center and has the directions for completeing that particular center); a cover for the front, full color materials for each center; reproducible record sheets; and a self-checking answer key.
I have used (too) many different map skills books trying to find one that they wouldn't get bored with. Well, I found it and this is it. Each folder offers a different way to learn the topic. I can't say enough about this book. I just wish I had found it before I wasted money on others. Buy it and your children will beg to do geography.

First Grade in Photographs: A Thoughtful and Practical Guide for Managing and Teaching Literacy in the First Five Weeks and Throughout the Year Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book helped me start teaching first grade after teaching the intermediate grades for many years. It gives suggestions for management and for teaching. I have re-read this book over and over. Each time, I find something new because I am becoming more and more comfortable with my new grade level. This is a wonderful book for new teachers or grade-level changing teachers.

Take It to Your Seat Math Centers, Grades K-1 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The take it to your seat books have all been great & the kids seem to especially enjoy this one. I needed something hands-on for my 6 year old but my 4.5 year old just loves the activities as well. There are 14 different activities inside, quite easy to just tear out & prepare. I used brown paper bage to glue each cover to, the instructions I glued on the back of the bag and placed the cut out material for the activity inside. I put the whole lot in a free choice box for them to choose from and I find them regularly pulling out several of the bags to do - they really enjoy them and it reinforces the maths concept in a concrete way. The illustrations are attractive and a good size. My eldest really likes the self-check answer gauges on the back of each game & it frees me up to do other things if needed. I prepared the whole book of activities in one afternoon. Well worth the money and have bought more from the series.

Take It to Your Seat Vocabulary Centers, Grades 3-4 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I like the activities but it would have been much easier if the book was not bound as I had to disassemble it to laminate the pages. Better yet, it could have already been laminated for me! Preparing the centers was very time consuming. Can't Evan Moore make it easier for busy teachers?

(More customer reviews)It's a great book to get ideas on making centers using folders. Although it is geared towards 3-4th grades, you can modify the ideas towards middle school. Great adition to my science library

Take It to Your Seat Math Centers, Grades 4-6 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've used both the Geography and the Math 'Take It to Your Seat' books. They are worthwhile work for kids who finish early or like to take on extra projects. They do take quite a bit of work to put together - but once they're laminated, they last very well. I recommend these books.

Take It to Your Seat Phonics Centers, Grades 1-2 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is awesome. I teach adult ESL, and I'm always looking for supplemental material to use in my class. I used these centers on Monday, and the students loved them. The centers look so nice when laminated and having them each in their own packet is great. Nearly all of the centers were challenging for the students, but lots of fun. They didn't want to quit when class was over! I'm sure elementary students would love them too. This product is great. I highly recommend it.

Take It to Your Seat Literacy Centers, Grades 4-5 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Just what I needed to revamp my classroom. This is the first time I have taught in literacy centers, and this book is an immense help. There is so much out there for primary grades and literacy groups...but not for intermiediate grades. Took a while to put it all together, but hopefully, it will last me for years. Many thanks.

Take It to Your Seat Literacy Centers, Grade 3-4 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wanted something relevant that students could work on while I was working with small groups - without having to spend a lot of time on my part organizing. This works well. It was time consuming at first to set up the folders (I laminated), but now that it is done there is very little time on my part required. I teach 4th grade and plan on getting the centers for 4th - 5th next year and starting students on 3-4 at the beginning of the year and switching to 4-5 during the 2nd semester. Now I want to try the one for science and the one for geography.
