Everyone loves playing, at least at school because we have to sit in our chairs for along time and study. Being able to play more and have can be beneficial not for our enjoyment, but for our health as well. Even if we hear about the word play, we brighten up. The reason we should have longer recess is because it keeps us active, and we can pay attention more.
Starting off, it can keep us active. All the equipment outside at recess can give us a work out exercise. The most common thing we do is run around and play games in the bright, hot, gleaming, sunlight. Which is most likely why we end up sweating,( which is good!) According to scientists, this way, we move our muscles more often and move around more which is better then being in a frozen pose in a chair. Most teacher don’t like the idea of having a lot of recess time, however, it is healthier and beneficial which is actually better. This shows that it is better active then sitting all day.
Secondly, We pay more attention. According to scientists again, when we get FRESH air, are brains work better and we have the ability to focus better. Instead of thinking it as too much ”play time”, we can say it as a lot of “ focus time” which is what teachers like, and it is something we like too, since it includes ” playing”. Having recess isn’t bad at ALL, but is actually something we actually prefer, or at least according to the results!
