Interactive Literacy Centers

     [Back to the Downloads Page]

These literacy centers are designed to go with the McGraw Hill Reading Anthology, but if you don't use that particular curriculum these might still be helpful.

On some days we run these as whole class activities, with two students to a computer. Other days they are set up more like a self-sufficient literacy center.
