Zoo-mething About Zoo Animals {Common Core Aligned Math and Literacy Centers}

Now that's a long title!
Like many of us, summer is the time to work on those projects that you didn't finish throughout the school year! My list is suuuuper long but I'm crossing things out one at a time.
Here is my little baby that really made me dig into those common core standards:

Ahhh! I started this pack when we went on our zoo field trip in APRIL!!! I never finished them and just got some inspiration during summer school. So I worked on there before school, during lunch, and after school for a bit. After a long week... they are finally finished!

Take a look at what you can find inside:

Here are the direction pages for all of the centers!

Wooh! That's a lot of information! No wonder it took me so long! 

I love these direction pages because I use these as the labels to my centers. I just cut off the bottom "teacher" part and tape it to my bag that has the recoding sheets and the cards! Easy easy!

You can find it on TpT {HERE} or on TN {HERE}

It is currently on sale for only $4.50 (regular price: $7.00) for the rest of the day! I will change it back to its regular price tomorrow before my summer school class!

Wooh! I am so happy to be done with that and start on another project! I think I will start on my classroom jobs! :)

Have a super Sunday!

I still have to post about my other Target finds... until next time!

Read Across America Literacy Centers and Activities!

I am excited to show y'all what I've been working on for the past couple of days!

It's a small literacy center pack that focuses on reading digraphs and blends, sorting, nonsense/real words, and recording. Each literacy center comes with at least one recording sheet {2 centers have 2 recording sheets!} These are my first centers and I love how I had to reflect on my past teaching and how my kiddos are doing in a specific skills to make a pack of activities that will help them grow!! I hope to make more soon... I might break the bank by investing in all this clip art! Ha! Here is an image of the contents page:

Here is an image of one of the literacy centers:
