Process Recess 2: Portfolio 7 reviews
James Jean
AdHouse Books, 2007
Spectacular
I feel so lucky to have been able to get my hands on Process Recess 2. This spiral bound edition has a very sturdy feel and is printed in vibrant colors on very thick cardstock-like paper. Jean also has a key at the beginning of the book which labels the different types of materials he used in creating his final images...I especially liked this as an artist; it was nice to see his sketches and ...

First Grade Friends: Recess Mess (Hello Reader, Level 1) (Hello Reader) 3 reviews
Grace Maccarone
Cartwheel, 1996
Easy to read book about school events.
This is good book for emerging readers. A lot of the simple words are repeated, making it easier for kids who are learning to read. Rhyming text also helps early readers. Most of the pages have just one or two sentences, but the last few pages suddenly have more text. It can be a bit discouraging for kids who were doing great reading on their own to suddenly have more trouble on the last ...

Carol Gray

I loved the section on the sixth sense.
A section of this book, The Sixth Sense, can be used as a means of enabling others to understand the social sense, the perception of social-emotional cues for Autism Spectrum disorders.

Recess: Its Role in Education and Development (Developing Mind)
Anthony D. Pellegrini
Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2005
Writing a book about recess could be a very questionable endeavor for a serious academic psychologist. At first blush it seems to be a pretty trivial topic. It's the time during the school day where there's a break from what's typically considered the most serious work of the day--reading, writing, and arithmetic. Reflecting this trivial tenor, it's also that time of the school day that kids--perhaps only half jokingly--say is their favorite ...

Dori E. Novak

We girls just wanna have fun
I have not had the opportunity to put this book into action, although after reading it cover to cover (about 1.5 hrs.) am so excited to give it whirl. It is so practical, and filled with great ideas. I have showed it to my teachers and our Principal. I have written the letter asking for parent donations (awaiting approval), and I have shared it with my fellow teaching assistants. Hopefully we ...

Recess Pieces8 reviews
Bob Fingerman
Dark Horse, 2006
Can a book about school children surviving a day trapped with the undead be charming?
The answer is, oddly enough, yes. Bob Fingerman captures the dynamic of school yard interactions to great effect. The characterization of the children is in the vein of Peanuts and Calvin & Hobbes... they are ruthlessly witty and innocent at the same time. Insightful commentaries on childhood, genre clichés and the inadequacies of the public school system are peppered throughout the narrative, ...
