Quality, not Quantity!

We're sloooowing things down a bit in Kindergarten this week.  Watching the kiddos speed through their center work was nerve racking!  So I decided to slow our centers down, just a bit.  The students are going to progress through 2 "Reading" centers a day instead of 4.  Hopefully I'm going to see improved cutting, gluing and coloring :).
