One reason why recess should be longer is that kids need to be more physical to

have healthier bodies. With more recess, kids might get a lot more flexible! Kids
will get really good at sports too, which is a very important skill. Tag, soccer,
football, climbing - now that's physical!

Kids also really need to play! An important part of childhood is having fun, and
kids can't really play longer more interesting games with just 15 minutes of
recess. Longer recess will help kids be more creative when they come up with
games and activities to fill the time. Kids would even learn to get along more with
a longer recess. They would have time to talk and solve problems. Kids who get
bored or have a tough time in class will feel good about school when they have
recess.

Lastly, with more recess kids will do better with their school work. That sounds
like the opposite, but it's true. With more recess, kids would let all their energy
out in recess time. Kids will be really quiet and focused in class all because of
recess. Kids will not run in the classroom or ever fool around again.
