Chicago Schools Contemplate Recess After Nearly 30 Years Without It

[AKA2D '91]

Inclimate weather games (most were held in your respective classes): Heads up, 7-up (whoever got picked stand up), sing-a-longs, Here comes the cat, hangman, SOS.

Just this past week, a few friends from elementary school reminisced about our recess, 4-square days. It's been nearly THIRTY years.

OMG!!!! Heads Up 7 Up was the ISHT!!!!! Yeah the games were played in our classroom but sometimes we got to go to the gym for movies and an all grade "What Time Is It Mr. Fox" or dodgeball. We watched the film strips in our classrooms with our lunch lady.

I had this thought the other day but I am so glad I was born in the time period I was born.
