Differentiated Vocabulary Center


This week I was fortunate enough to work with a fourth grade classroom.  The teacher in this classroom wanted to look for ways to differentiate her reading centers. We decided to take small bites & start with one center at a time. She needs all of her students to complete work in the Vocabulary Center every Monday, because students use this vocabulary foldable in a reading notebook throughout the week.  So we decided to start there! When students go to the Vocabulary Centers on Monday, they see a set of cards on a ring. Depending on their reading group (based on reading levels), students complete a different color of card. The approaching reading group completes the red card, her on-level groups complete the green card, and her beyond group completes the blue card. Students know which color card to complete because each reading group has its own color theme. Ive also included a blank yellow card for the teacher to customize.
