    Interesting ways to implement stations.

  4. Carolina – SOCORRO ISD (verified owner) –

    Its good to know other ways to organize your teaching to meet the needs of the students and keep teachers organized. Very helpful information.

  5. Amber – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) –

    I like the ideas but they are geared for older students than I teach. I can still use some components that were presented by altering them for the age that I teach.

  6. Johnda – IRONTON CITY (verified owner) –

    It was OK. I’m not sure if it fits my teaching style. Although, It had some good information.

  7. Kelly – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –

    It was good as a first look at centers, but I would like to know more about the actual activities in each center and have some actual examples of what I could use.

  8. Rachel – MIDLOTHIAN ISD (verified owner) –

    This is great for older students that can read independently.

  9. Mackenzie – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) –

    Good if you do not understand how to begin with stations

  14. Marie – VAN WERT CITY (verified owner) –

    This course was informative; it was not an ‘overload’ of information which makes it seem ‘doable’ for implementation. The provided resources are also helpful.

  15. Gisela – UNITED ISD (verified owner) –

    Very informative

  16. Monica – VALLEY VIEW ISD PHARR – REGION 01 (verified owner) –

    This gave me a lot of ideas of how to make my rotations better for my students.

  17. Melissa – LAREDO ISD (verified owner) –

    This course inspires me to try stations. Good info

  18. Danielle – COLUMBUS CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT (verified owner) –

    I think the course was great especially if you want to start a station rotation program. I would like to see the day in action or a sample day in her classroom. How does it look for the whole class period? Maybe she could add something about how a day looks in the class with the actual stations and the small group session.

  19. Erin – HARMONY SCIENCE ACADEMY & SCHOOL OF SCIENCE – HOUSTON SOUTH 101846 OR 101862 (verified owner) –

    I think this is awesome. It would work wonderfully in a second grade and up classroom. I am considering modifying it for a first grade classroom.

  26. Ruby – DEL VALLE ISD (verified owner) –

    For the upper elementary grades I feel this presentation was great, however I do not feel I have gained much that I can implement as easily at the Kindergarten level. If I had known the presenter was a 6th grade teacher, I would’ve chosen another presentation.
