Um, that title is a mouthful, but it is all true!  I just finished my August ELA centers.

These things were a true labor of love.  Emphasis on the labor!! They took a bit longer than I expected!  These are like an ELA companion to my monthly math centers.  Just like my math centers, I will be creating these each month. The August pack includes of 100 pages of activities. I tried to incorporate as much differentiation as possible so that all students are working on the same skill or concept, just at a different level.

For example, in this center students sort one syllable short and long vowel words.  I included two versions of the activity.

The only difference is the difficulty of the words used, but the centers look identical.
Order Up! is a center practicing alphabetizing. There are two different levels of difficulty, but look the same to the kids!
I also added a bunch of “teacher’s helpers.” I shared some of these earlier. 
There are several versions of the menus.  The menus can be a simple check list for students or a reflection tool for each center.  Students can rate their understanding and effort for each center.
I also included a weekly reflection rubric for students to complete if the teacher wanted to use something more detailed than the rubrics on the menus above.
I wanted to make collection and assessment a snap, so I also included an editable checklist. The teacher can mark off the completed centers.  A simple grading sheet is also included. The teacher can staple this onto the top of each child’s stack of centers and put the grades right on the top (or a check plus/ check minus system).
Right now the centers are on sale for only $10! You can get your copy here.
If you managed to read this WHOOOOLLLEE post I also have a freebie for you!  This is just a sample of one of the activities included!
