Follow the yellow brick road through eight hands-on centers. Students build long vowel words on the Tin Woodman's broken hearts, sort digraph pictures with Dorothy, put Oz names in ABC order, order numbers, race to the Emerald City, count by 2s with the Scarecrow, match clocks for the Lion's courage and build place value houses.
