My kindergarteners have loved their new centers, once I finished making and laminating them. It has been nice to reuse these centers instead of making the same ones over and over again. They love to draw and create but had gotten bored with the alphabet centers. I was able to make lots of sight word and writing centers. I have many more math centers planned to make soon.
