Recess for Everyone

Listen to "Recess for Everyone ft. Dr. Shannon Kell" on Spreaker. As educators, we often think that work time and leisure time don’t really mix. We tend not to view spending time in the outdoors as “productive.” In reality, stress levels decrease when we go outside, and an effective break is necessary if you’re looking to conquer that to-do list of yours. So how can we change mindsets where both students and staff are motivated to go outside? There are small ways that we can incorporate the outdoors into our everyday work lives.
