You said you hated it and you liked it as a kid.
If kids can go outside they can make more friends and give teachers somemore time to work on something

I feel it is very important for students to participate in recess. I have been in the schools for quite a few years and can see a huge difference between students going outside for recess or having to stay inside. Not only is recess a way for students to burn energy but it is also great exercise. In my local schools, when students have inside recess they stay in their classrooms. I feel this does not give the teacher a much needed break but also the students should not be in the classroom all day long. Students need to do different things and be in different places. Simply always being in the classroom is dull. If our schools in upstate New York did not participate in having recess, I could not imagine as an educator what the school day would be like nor would I like to find out.

Recess should be allowed in middle school.

this should be a part of the school’s daily routine because it helps to facilitate children physical development.

I believe we should continue to have recess as this will also help the young children to develop their Sensori and Psychomotor abilities.
