Today, as I was sorting through Miss M's goodies, I came across these awesome monster finger pointers that our class uses during guided reading centers.What a great idea! Anything to keep the kids engaged and interested!
(I of course had to try the monster fingers on!!!!)
Inspired by our monster fingers, I decided to find some other items you could use as props to keep the kiddos interested in reading during centers or to assist in word tracking. Here is what I found:
From Tunstall's Tidbits blog:
This tracker is a Popsicle stick with googly eyes!
How about a fake nail on a Popsicle stick?
"Magic" reading glasses anyone?
From Lesson Plan SOS Blog:
These kiddos put on a fancy headset and they feel like superstars!(Headsets are from WalMart and cost $2.00!)

From Primary Graffiti's Blog:
Encourage students to read to self with whisper phones!(This blog has a very thorough tutorial on how to make your own whisper phones for very little money).
What does your classroom do to keep the kiddos engaged during guided reading?
