[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our K class has 20 minutes for recess and that time includes going out and coming back and a bathroom break for all the K students. In the afternoon, they lay down for a short nap in the beginning of the year. They also do stations and have a lot of time where they are not sitting still. [/quote] OP here -- that's true, I suppose I shouldn't think of all non-recess time as "sitting still" time, for sure. But, wow. This news really depresses me. I'm not naive about education these days-- I was involved in education policy in my first career and so know all about the testing requirements and crammed school days, etc. But, I guess, now as the mother of an actual child, who needs to run and work off all this energy , I see things differently! Do you know, for kids that go to aftercare, do they get outside frequently? That would at least help, I suppose. [/quote]
