What's the one thing every child desires in school? More break time! And that's exactly four public schools are giving to students, which turns out to be beneficial to everyone. The four schools are carrying out the LiiNK program, a project that (satisfy) every kid's hunger for more rest and therefore helps encourage (create), develop character and promote success.
LiiNK was inspired by Finnish approaches to (learn) based on the simple concept of giving children more outside playtime. In Finland, where the learning system has been in place decades, some of the students have the (high) scores on global assessment(评估) tests. Instead of spending increasing amounts of time inside the classroom, they're spending more and more time on physical activity.
Some studies discovered that traditional break actually helps students improve (they) performance inside the classroom and it provides a platform for students to be able (function) at their best level.
Other studies have shown that outdoor playtime decreases restlessness and tiredness, and has number of benefits such as improving motor skills, developing physical fitness, and promoting social development. All the children in these schools where the program carried out are happier because of it. So the best way to make children happy and successful is to (simple) let them be kids every once in a while.
