contents This Will Turn You On! Carter, Candy Class Activities Classroom Environment Educational Games English Instruction Instructional Materials Learning Activities Learning Laboratories Reading Centers Secondary Schools The major portion of this document is devoted to an explanation for language arts teachers of ways to construct classroom games which can increase students' language and reading skills. Also included are suggestions and recommendations for designing and using different types of learning centers, for setting them up, for selecting the right type of furniture and color coding, and for maintaining an attractive classroom. Examples of the types of learning centers are: an individualized reading center which gives the student an opportunity to select any book he wishes from the classroom library; a creative writing center which enables a student to select any writing assignment in the creative box, turn in a rough draft, revise the work, and submit a final copy for a grade; a listening center in which the student listens to three to five minutes of a favorite kind of music, and then selects either a story or song to read or write about; and a "how to do" center which shows the student how to follow directions carefully and encourages him to do stitchery, paper folding (origami and paper airplanes), soap carving, or ice cream stick architecture.
