New Georgia law requires school districts to have recess for students from kindergarten to fifth grade and will go into effect next school year.
Under the law, schools will not be able to withhold recess from students for disciplinary or academic reasons.
Just wish it was K-12!

I don't know who needs to hear this but...Students in special education still need intervention provided by the general education teacher.

Children are not mini adults much like a caterpillar is not a butterfly. Children need time to play, learn and grow as children so they can eventually become an adult.

What are you willing to change?

[Dr. Steven Weber @curriculumblog]

“We need to create schools that are organized to meet the needs of the kids they serve instead of what we've been doing. We expect kids to adjust to the schools and if they can't, we say something is wrong with the child.”

Be the teacher who takes their kids outside in the sun as often as possible and gives them extra recess or play time, just because.

Admin, it takes everyone on the team to win a championship. Teachers, bus drivers, custodians, cafeteria workers, staff, para's, & subs! Students and parents! It is the WHOLE TEAM that creates a winning culture & when any are neglected, it affects whole team. Celebrate everyone!

[Evan Robb @ERobbPrincipal]

The school principal sets the tone for a school. A tone of intentional risk-taking, innovation, and creativity or a tone of rigid compliance. It is the principal who can stifle creativity, imagination, and risk-taking or empower staff to find their greatness…right now.

4 tips to alleviate stress of staff.
1) if asking to meet with them, let them know why.
2) Don't address an issue you have with one person with the whole staff.
3) praise a lot more than you critique
4) less meetings

If you are worried about teacher retention, remember, if you want to keep the best teachers, treat them like they are the best. Few teachers leave an environment where they feel valued, supported, appreciated, and treated like professionals. Few want to leave a winning team!

Spot on!!

We are not teaching mini adults but children. Let them learn, play, and simply be children. Add an extra recess today and have a Fantastic Friday!

[Dr. Bryan Pearlman #MaslowBeforeBloom @DrP_Principal]

There are no BAD kids!
There are kids who:
-have been traumatized
-have little hope for the future
-haven’t experienced success or love
-haven’t learned to regulate emotions
-have been repeatedly disappointed by adults

It’s NEVER too late to help a kid who is struggling!
