Blog Entry #14


After reading threw the passage`` Playtime Is Over’’ by David Elkind, it has come to mind that recess to children are now being given less because schools had been over-scheduling and over-programing the children. Something Even more ridiculous is that schools now hire ‘’Recess Coaches” who oversee student’s free time

Children have lost up to 8 hours of their free time for a whole week of unstructured play and outdoor activities only having up to 2 hours of free time in a whole week; the reason is because schools are in favor for more time for classes. it’s considered wrong and no achievement will bring the children’s grade any higher but rather the children’s grades will decreasing for not allowing any recess to let them have free time. In my own childhood recess was the perfect time for all of us children to go out and play or being to socialize with others discussing such things as Pokémon if neither was a good option we can just relax cooling our heads down from all the class work we done, when times up all of us going back to class but we feel more open minded no more feeling distracted as well were more relax
