Her phys ed teacher conducts class outside when the weather is pleasant. So far this year, they've only had gym indoors 2 times.<BR/><BR/>I do wonder about the CTU and what role, if any, it would play in bringing back recess.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12432814267664267337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4105017502450855225.post-33983076311967269922007-10-07T07:12:00.000-07:002007-10-07T07:12:00.000-07:00Dear Kathy:At my Chicago Public School we have rec...Dear Kathy:<BR/>At my Chicago Public School we have recess. Yes, we do, every day except when weather does not permit. We also have a better lunch program. Why? Our principal--she met with us to see if we the teachers, wanted to have recess back, made a workable schedule, so that we are not all out at the same time AND worked with lunchroom staff and lunch provider to assure better choices for our students to eat. Do you have an LSC at your school--What does your LSC do? What do they say? <BR/>However, we want also to have more gym, but that really is a money issue--I wish the CTU could have won more gym time like they won more counseling time. I think you have to choose between gym and library--and it is sad that we would have to give up one for the other. Recess is the way to go since CPS allows gym only 1 day per week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4105017502450855225.post-63544004212804960842007-09-29T19:40:00.000-07:002007-09-29T19:40:00.000-07:00I hope it is not innapropriate to post here - I wo...I hope it is not innapropriate to post here - I worked for years on a childhood obesity game and it is finally out nationwide.
