I kinda like this idea of 'structured recess'. I am just concerned of what it could morph into (gym class, or worse). Free time IS good for kids to wind down, up, backwards or in circles. But a little structure to make sure the kids are doing something and not being alone woththeir iPods is a very good thing. From The New York Times: Forget Goofing Around: Recess Has a New Boss A growing number of schools use a recess coach to curb behavior problems. http://s.nyt.com/u/2ef
