Morning Stations and Inventive Thinking Lab So I got this FABULOUS idea from Denise Boehm! Instead of morning work she has her students complete stations the first 20 minutes of the day, as children are arriving and doing their morning routines. I'm going into third grade from second grade with many hands on activities for various math manipulatives. I also have invested in Thinkfun games which we call, Inventive Thinking Lab. My stations will be...
