More from my workboxes day 2. As you can see, I only have 10 boxes, and for the older grades I agree with Sue Patrick, you should probably have 12 boxes, but I’ve found I can double up work into 1 box, then use the extra box for a ‘fun’…
Read aloud time…he picks a book and I pick a book. I usually put a little sack of crackers, or sometimes fun stuff like cookies in here so he can snack while we read. I also make sure to have the others doing an independant box so we can have…
