[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]In other parts of the world, ES kids have 2 blocks of recess 25 min each in 6-6:30 hrs of school. In those schools of less developed countries everyone understand young kids need outdoor play. [/quote] Source? I agree that kids need outdoor play, but one hour out of 6 hours of school? That leaves 5 hours for instruction. If they eat lunch, that is 41/2 hours. [/quote] The source are self experience and family members living there. Lunch is 45 min[/quote] So, that is 4 hours and fifteen minutes for instruction. And, if self-experience and family members are your source, could you share which country?[/quote] NP. Here in the US, a school switched to one hour of recess per day and saw immediate positive results. http://www.offgridquest.com/education/texas-school-triples-recess-time-and-see [/quote]
