Here is my 2nd review of the Maths Centres Books,
this time Year 3. I was teaching Year 3/4 last school year so this one is not
too much of a stretch for me! I actually organised with one of our Year 1/2
teachers who was looking at ideas for extending her children who needed a
challenge to try out this activity.

Included are 10 full-colour centres that cover important
Maths skills. There are instructions on how to put the centres together, but
basically it is rip out (as I said yesterday, I love the ease of taking the
pages out), laminate and cut, then put into a pocket folder to keep organised
and safe!

As with the Foundation level book, I love that this book is
again easy on the pocket β no need for photocopying and printing. If you choose
to use the follow up worksheets (included), that is the only printing you will
do!

Here are some photos of a centre I put together β there are
more pages included in the book (such as the answer key) but I decided just to
use the student cards.

These activities are perfect for centre activities but also
for early finishes. Everything is included, including instructions, so children
should simply be able to pick up the folder and use it!
