The First Grade Parade. Centers. It's a challenge to explain how I manage my centers.

Around the Clock Here is a center game to reinforce clock numeral placement.
For each game board, glue a construction paper clock to a colored background. Label each of several chips (in sets of 12 chips) with numerals 1 - 12. In turn have each player roll a 12 sided die, then cover that number on her clock with the correctly labeled chip. If a player rolls a numeral that has already been covered with a chip, she must pass the die to the next player. Continue play until on numerals on each clock are covered.
