58. How To Teach Without Interruption During Centers In First Grade

In this episode, Molly shows you how to teach without interruption by training students to work independently during centers. Welcome to Part 6 of the full masterclass on how to set up and manage centers in your classroom.

You can listen to the entire series in order beginning with Episode 53.

After 35 years of teaching, Molly learned that students working independently at centers don't happen by accident - they happen because students are taught exactly what to do before centers ever begin.

In this episode, she'll walk you through the step-by-step process she used to teach routines, introduce centers, prevent interruptions, handle fast finishers, and create smooth transitions so she could meet with small groups without constant interruptions.
