Recess Time

Playing outside at recess. Read it together, at your pace. Every page is written in your child's voice.

1. Recess is a time to play outside at school. I can choose what to do.
2. The playground can be busy. Kids run, swing, and shout.
It can be loud and fast out there. The sun can be bright.

3. I can play with others. I can play alone. Both are good ways to spend recess.
4. I see kids playing a game I like.
What could happen next?
  • I ask to join and they say yes.
  • They are in the middle and ask me to wait.
  • I decide to do something else instead.
  • We don't know yet — and that's okay.
💡 Recess can go lots of ways. I get to choose, and I can change my choice.
5. If I want to join, I can ask.
6. When recess is over, the bell rings or a teacher calls us. Then we line up and go inside. Recess ends, and another one comes tomorrow.
