[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand this strange trend to demand more recess. They are in school to learn. There's plenty of time to run around after school. It's not a long day.[/quote] It's 7 hours, a long school day for a kindergartner. And they are in school to learn; one of the most important things they learn is social, learned on the playground. While your children are paragons with immense EQ and social skills, my kindergartner is still learning and needs the experience. Have you heard the saying, Sound mind, sound body? Recess, PE, and movement are vital to young children, just as vital as academics. [/quote]
