    I am a third grade teacher also, we use Houghton Mifflin. If
    you mean by making your centers for grade level work then you
    need to have your AP come in your room and model the centers
    for you. Making the centers fit Intensive, Strategic and
    Bendchmark is very hard to do. I make my centers with a
    Benchmark leader and an intensive student in each center then
    disperse the other students to equal the ability of the
    student. We even had the state coordinator come and share
    this concept with us. But what I learned was to have someone
    to model the centers for me. I use my small group to teach
    intensive students 3 times a week for 15 minutes and strategic
    students twice a week. I hope I am not out of line but
    Benchmark scores will not match report cards. Good luck!
