 What about morning recess?
We are not allowed to take the children out for an "organized" morning 
recess. I do however take them out as I feel the need for an extra recess. 
This happens most at the beginning of school, but also occurs throughout the 
year.  I believe they need the physical activity each morning.

skills.

 Why do you still let the children have centers?
I believe the children need time to choose their activities. All day, I am 
choosing what they do, and I believe they need time to feel in control of 
their choices.  Remember, PLAY is a child's work!
