Spinner to Read and Write


Here's a new version of the spin, read, and write word working center I'm going to try this week.  We tried the tops last week and they loved the tops and spinning them, however, they only spun on the words they put the tops on...so I wanted more word play.  
I'll print these on cardstock and laminate....I have a plastic see thru spinner that they can put on top of the words and spin away.

The plan is to use a recording sheet and record the words they spin.  The first word to win is the one they write on the back of the paper with two sentences.


Enjoy,
Heidi

Love it! Just wondering...where did you find a plastic see-through spinner? The only ones I can find are black.

They came from my school math kit, however, I've seen them at our local school supply store.
You can also find them online at eai resources:

They're called overhead spinners.

This is AWESOME!! Could you please send me a copy of the blank spinner so that I can import some of the words from the reading series I am using? My e-mail is ruskieroo@centurylink.net

Thanks so much,
Donna

Used this in my class this week and my students loved it. My high group didn't need the practice with the sight words, but they wanted to play so I made them supply a rhyming word for the word they spun. Thanks so much!

That's a great idea! Think I'll be adding that next!
