Your input for Literacy Group / Task Labels Please

UPDATE...1 June 2010

Hi everyone - thanks for your input into this - any more suggestions? As we will be updating this resource next week (better late than never!)

We are actually going to include as many different timetable options as
possible - this may mean more than 50 options - but we want to include
as much as we can so that many different circumstances are covered -
this includes all areas, literacy, maths, bathroom time etc......

So please add your timetable / group work label suggestions...

Thanks

Hi everyone - hope all is well for you all. We are looking to update our literacy groups / task board labels template and would love your input.

We would like to know what literacy groups / task titles you would like to see. For example - free writing, read with teacher, computer, handwriting folders.

We are more than happy to have as many different titles as people would need so please be as specific as you like and we will add them to our template.

Appreciate your input and looking forward to finding out more about what you all need.

Thanks
Donna - K-3 Teacher Resources
