Below are four true statements about healthy living during middle childhood (ages 6 to 11). There is also one false statement. Pick the false statement. One-third of US school kids get less than 15 minutes daily recess and many school kids in low-SES, city neighborhood schools get no recess time at all. The CDC recommends school aged kids be active (not sit awaiting a turn) for at least half of every gym class. When it doesn't cost anything to join in, kids from low-SES families and kids with disabilities are more likely to be involved in extracurricular activities, which balances declining gym time and recess during school hours. Neighborhood playtime allows school-aged kids to get exercise and to learn ethics. Not only are death rates lower during mid-childhood than for early childhood, but also they are also about 100 times lower than death rates for adults.
