One of our staff members read an article in the Des Moines
Register about a school that has noon recess before lunch.
Our K-5 building is thinking of using that idea next year.
We would have a 20 minute recess, followed immediately by
lunch (we eat at 11:00) and two shorter recesses in the
afternoon. It sounds like a good idea because classrooms
would get a large block of literacy time in the morning.
Does anyone have experience with this sort of schedule?
I'd like to hear pros and cons.
