Re: Centers in a 5th grade classroom
Posted by Lori on 8/22/07

    If you haven't been introduced to www.fcrr.org yet, try it out. It is
    a wonderful resource for centers. They just uploaded 4th and 5th grade
    reading skills. So get lots of paper, a volunteer, and start coping
    and laminating. Also there is a company called Kamico. They have a
    book for each grade level in each state that goes along with your
    state's objectives. Enjoy!
