The word has been changed but
th melody lingers on.
Whether you use the old-fashioned
word "recess" or the new
fangled "physical education per
iod," it still means a time for
muscle activity, fun and exhilira
tion to Salem school kids.
The magic of play time is still
there, just as it always has been.
Children shout just as loud, run
a fast and scramble just as fur
iously as in "recess" periods.
N. 'Breaks' N.w
Physical education periods are
not considered "breaks" from
study routine, as they once were,
but a part of the educational program.
These periods are controlled by
teachers the same as other
classes. The kids engage in
rhythms, games, activities and
stunts, relays, body conditioning
and instruction in physical skills.
We don t just throw out a ball
and let the kids take over," said
Mrs. Grace Wolgamatt, Salom
public school system physical ed
ucation director. "These periods
are planned and organized. Every
one participates."
Use of the playground equip
ment, such as the jungle bars,
swinging rings and play ladders.
is prohibited during physical edu
cation periods. The kids may
scramble over these only before
and after school hours and during
a brief noon period.
Old Standby
Old play standbys, such as soft-
ball and soccer, are on the pro
gram in season.
Last year Salem school war re
cipient of the award given to the
school system having the best
physical education program In 1
