Second Grade Work Work CENTERS!!!!!!

What should I be doing right now?!? Maybe finishing up my holiday shopping or enjoying a nice hot latte BUT I am babysitting...my poor mother! {Bless her heart...she is having a rough time right now with three surgeries in two days!} So instead, I am getting ALL, yes I said ALL of my work done for the first week back at school. I told my mom that I don't know whether to hug her or kill her. She was totally OK with that comment and proceeded to remind me that this is nothing compared to what she put up with during her 26 years {and counting} of raising me! I don't understand that a bit...I was a complete angel! ;)  Anyways...this whole being prepared early thing is SO NOT me. Seriously...I am the BIGGEST procrastinator that you will ever meet when it comes to paper work and things that I do not particularly love! Wait that didn't come out right... I LOVE teaching, just not over the holidays! Better!

So, on today's agenda....2nd Grade Word Work Centers! Y'all...I am SO SUPER PUMPED about finally having the time to create this or BEGIN creating this {I guess this is a hug her moment?!? Ha!} I feel like I have been drawing at straws for my weekly phonics instruction and frankly...my straws...well...they're gone! I am so excited about having everything in one place, pressing print, and making copies for those sweet kiddos of mine!

It is in the beginning stages, but I am going to be working on mini-units for all of the 28 units that are included in 2nd Grade Word Work. First up...Unit 10. Why not start with unit 1? It's all about meeting them where they are at...and we are currently on Unit 10...so that is where I shall begin. Don't worry, I will play catch up and get back to units 1-9.

Here is a little look-see!
This little 37 page mini includes skill posters and seven centers including the words from both the weekly and challenge lists. All centers can be used for whole group, small group, or individualized instruction or center activities. I can't wait to play The Amazing Race and Candy Land: The Game of Plurals when we return!


You can click on the pictures below to take you directly to TPT to pick these up! They are both currently on SALE!!!!

Can I get a shout-out for not being a procrastinator this time?!? Whooohooo!! :)

  8. Hello I was just wondering what resources you used to create your word work units? I am interested in purchasing it from teachers pay teachers but I know my district will ask if the lists are researched based and on what state standards or common core? Thank you so much and LOVE this blog being a 2nd grade teacher myself : )
