It typically includes informing students of the expectations for appropriate behavior, such as staying in designated areas, not running, and being respectful of others. It may also include other safety procedures, such as having students wear a safety vest or using hand signals to move around the playground. There are two types of 2.01 Cautionary Instruction Before Recess: verbal instruction and written instruction. Verbal instruction involves teachers or staff providing verbal guidance to students while written instruction involves students reading a written statement that outlines the expectations for recess.
