520 1 $a"Due to tightened school budgets and a reinvigorated emphasis on testing, many elementary schools eliminate recess, gym classes, and play periods, to the developmental detriment of the very children the schools are supposed to serve. Anthony D. Pellegrini has conducted a number of careful studies regarding student attentiveness and performance within programs that have recess periods and those that do not. The data show that recess maximizes students' attention to classroom tasks and interact with each other in the unstructured recess environment in order to grow socially. The goal of Recess is to help readers realize the importance of recess and counter the trend to eliminate it from schools. This book is of interest to academics, teachers, administrators, and parents."--Jacket.
