Bill Would Require Recess

A new bill in Massachusetts would  make recess mandatory for every student in elementary school. 

The bill requires students to have a minimum of 20 minutes of  playtime every day.  

The proposed legislation says teachers could not  take recess away as a form of punishment.  

Critics of the new bill say  it takes local control away from school districts.
