Introduction 
 Recess time has been greatly reduced in 
many schools 
 Instructional time is deemed most important 
 Recess has benefits on many student 
behaviors 
 The students who need recess most, tend to 
lose it as a consequence
Focus 
 The focus of this research was to see how 
recess impacted student behaviors. 
 Could more frequent or longer recess reduce 
off-task behaviors? 
 Could recess enhance learning for all 
students?
Participants 
 12 first graders 
 1 ELL student 
 4 females, 8 males 
 5 students on IEP or 504 for speech and 
language
Methods 
 Qualitative study 
 Field notes 
 Observations 
 Analyzing notes to find common themes 
among students 
 Implement an intervention: additional recess
Data: Themes 
Theme Behaviors 
Work production Consists of the amount of prompting to complete work and the amount 
completed 
Attentiveness Able to recall learned information and directions, body is in a listening 
and learning position (body still, eyes on speaker, ears listening, voices 
off) 
Disruptions Unnecessary noises or talking out, not raising hand. 
Fidgeting Unstill body in circle or at desk, out of seat, sitting inappropriately at desk 
Other Participation, distractibility

Conclusions 
 Unstructured recess benefits student 
behaviors 
 Increased off-task behaviors directly before 
recess 
 Increased positive behaviors directly after 
recess
Implications 
 This study was a small snapshot of student 
behaviors. 
 If positive behaviors increase, recess should 
be more thoughtfully implemented and 
scheduled. 
 An increase in positive behaviors may 
suggest academic achievement.
