@danshutes: We can't complain about how difficult it is for kids to hold still and focus in class and then turn around and take away their opportunity to go outside to get it all out... Let kids play. #teacher #teachersoftiktok #teacherlife #school #students #fyp
as a mom of an autistic child please understand that I wish every teacher did THIS!!!!

I know it’s not exactly the same, but I’m the same way with my boys at home. They start getting antsy or crabby, outside we go. Their attitudes change almost immediately. Honestly same for me too lol.

In the second grade I couldn’t go outside because I had to finish my work while I watched everyone else play

I truly believe elementary kids shouldn’t be written up unless truly needed. I used to get written up for putting my head down when I needed a break as my teachers didn’t do breaks after 3rd grade.

Exactly. They need the break. Helps them concentrate. We had THREE recesses: 20-30 min morning & afternoon, 15 min after lunch. Very few behavior problems. But that was mid-60s to 70s.

Unfortunately we have taken away recess. My class last year was a 15:1. Behavior issues all around. They refused to work. So had them work in recess. Not often, but did happen

I love this ! Well said. As you said, this has been proven many times over. Movement reduces stress and can be used to your advantage. Moms have been using this for a long time! 💗

At my daughter’s school they make them walk at recess and I think it is so wrong. I 100% agree with you.
