If you are worried about management you may want to save Stikbots for a later center.  You could start with having one center for K-1 be audiobooks.  Presumably, since students are doing these in December you will be able to have them access audiobooks easily and you won't have to directly work with any of the groups and just ensure that everyone is doing a good job working on their own.
