[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will say this too. Regardless of middle school or not, kids do need recess. I've seen many article that say play is crucial for middle schoolers too, which seems like a no brainer to me, that's how i grew up.[/quote] And that could be accommodated in middle school without keeping them all in elementary school.[/quote] Could it be though? Many ppl think due schedules/changing classes and lack of that it can't happen [/quote] Of course it "can." People just won't like how: lengthen the school day. Changing classes has nothing to do with it. Elementary students change classrooms for things. It's the length of each class period that's different when you get to middle school. So, either knock off a few minutes from every period or extend the day 15 minutes to allow for a 15-minute break.[/quote]
