[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think recess is 30 minutes, although the littlest kids might get additional time. They don't cut recess short, and it's only indoors if the weather is bad. They don't do the no-talking at lunch thing, but I've heard of other schools doing this, and it is probably because the kids get so busy talking that they don't eat and then they are hungry (or hangry) in the afternoon. I don't know what you mean by "how full is the schedule." It's full. They have blocks scheduled all day for reading, math, PE, art, music, circle time, etc. As a practical matter, most teachers include regular movement breaks throughout the day, and the kids move among different stations (for the little kids) or classrooms (the older kids).
