How many activities work best at each station?

Always refer to your planning sheet to support the implementation of diverse needs in your class. Remembering learning happens in many different ways - multisensory, kinesthetic, social, emotional 

Quiet space 
- options to learn spelling, handwriting, 
- options to write stories 
- options to make and do through literacy
- exposure to a variety of genre - poetry, picture books, sequencing cards to tell a story, instructional. 
- challenge board to develop shared learning and dialogue

Number Space
- equipment for learning to be nurtured in math goals
- options to read and write numbers
- large numbers
- challenge board to develop shared learning and dialogue


One activity at other stations with exemplar or model of what the finshed product could look like
- equipment to scaffold the thinking and learning - ie architects board and rulers at lego station, Van Gogh starry night at art attach

Less is more! 
The setting out must be clear and easy to understand. 
Too much and being overcrowded will create a mess to clean up everyday and children will bypass the learning you are trying to implement and scaffold through the environment.
