Recess Before Lunch
“Recess Before Lunch,” also known as “Play Before Eat,” is a new practice we have implemented at Ernest Hemingway STEAM School. This practice aims to improve students’ health and behavior by, as its name implies, having children play first and eat lunch afterward. We have already noticed the students are eating more food during lunch time, wasting less food and they are calmer and more focused during their afternoon classes. Please support us in this new routine by having your students eat a healthy breakfast, and providing them a large, healthy snack for the morning recess time.
