May Literacy Menu posted!

I finally finished my May centers and I’m so happy with them! I added 4 extra centers (one in each column) because my kids are getting so good at centers and May is always extra long! (I know some of you get out of school in May, but I get out in June, so May is super long.) So there are 20 centers in all. 

Here is the student menu:

Students will read the word on the frog and place it on the correct pond, depending on how many syllables it has.
