Keeping learning centers clean and ready to be used when the next student arrives, is an important expectation I have of my students. We discuss this at the beginning of the year so students know that it is their responsibility to do this. The logical consequence for not having a center clean and in order is that it will be closed. I simply hang a sign on the center that reads:

"The ____________ center will be closed for 1 week due to ________________.
Center will re-open on ________________.
