Description
Are you looking for hands on, low prep math and literacy centers for Kindergarten or Pre-K? Look no further! These Kindergarten centers for the year are perfect for the teacher who wants engaging Kindergarten math and literacy activities but also loves their free time and doesn’t want to spend hours prepping (who would?!).
Each month of math and literacy centers will include 20 centers in total – 10 literacy centers and 10 math centers.
⭐️Low prep! These centers were designed to be low prep but high engagement. Most of the activities can be printed, laminated, and quickly sliced. Just add simple manipulatives you already have in your classroom and you’re good to go!
⭐️Build independence – I Can cards are included for each center and its variations to build student independence.
⭐️Kindergarten Math and Literacy Worksheets and Printables Included! A worksheet version is included for each center activity. Use these math and literacy printables as a recording sheet for accountability or use them separately on their own.
