[quote=Anonymous]A 15 minute recess does seem very short, but other than that what you describe seems normal. There is a lot of pressure in public schools to hit specific content requirements and lots more testing. It isn't fun, but I would aslo be shocked if your kid didn't have a ton of movement breaks, fun activities etc. Can you ask to read to the class or volunteer in some way so you can see what's actually going on? I used to get the same reports from my kids, but when I went in and actually saw how much fun they had, how much silliness and dancing went on, etc., I was relieved. [/quote]
