"Let's Trade Secrets" Educator Workshop: Organized Play

“Let’s Trade Secrets” are free quarterly educator workshops focused on a different topic each quarter. Teachers and school leaders from charter, district, and independent schools are invited to share different perspectives, resources, and best practices around common educational issues.

Synergy Charter Academy and Quincy Jones Elementary School have implemented a system of Organized Play during recess since they moved on to their shared campus five years ago. Campus Assistants/Aides lead students in a variety of outdoor sports and play activities. The result? Students engage in physical activity everyday. They build skills used in sports and games. They learn how to play as part of a team. And, they return to class after recess ready to learn. 

Join fellow educators to learn the "secret" of Organized Play at recess. Learn how reclaiming recess can engage all kids in physical activity and even add minutes of instruction to your school day!
