Recess Guidelines:

• Walk in a quiet self-controlled line to recess destination

• Anyone talking or not showing self-control loses the amount of minutes of play time equal to his age

• Regularly games should be modified to strengthen the relationship between the grade levels (ex. an older child paired with a younger child to teach them the needed skill in the game – then the game is played possibly against the teacher so that the group has a chance to be successful together)

• Gracious no matter who they’re paired with

• Take the time to correct situations that you see as if your own child were involved.

• Are the kids being other oriented?

• Are they thinking of their responsibility to guard the hearts of their peers, themselves, and the younger students?

• Are they speaking to you (the adult) with a question and a please?

• No shooting or killing games

• The kids can all be against a bad guy, but they are not allowed to be the bad guy

Lunch Tips:

• Remain in seats unless throwing away trash

• Gracious to whomever they end up sitting beside

• The conversation should guard the hearts of all present

• Kind words
