Are They Handcuffing The Kids To Their Desks, Too?
-
Sometimes, educators can really be idiots. Take this school system, where elementary students will no longer get recess, but instead will just stay in class and have to rely on phys ed class for activity. The superintendent says that the new phys ed program will be better than letting them run around for recess, but that assumes that the point of recess is physical activity. It isn't. It's to give the kids a break in the day, the same way adults take coffee breaks or a few minutes to check their Facebook pages. You need a break. Everyone needs a break. How do educators not see that? (WFXT (Fox 25)/Boston; Thanks to Jeff Katz at WXKS (Rush Radio 1200)/Boston for the link)
