After collecting lengthy writing assignments, you excuse students to the playground for 15 minutes. This arrangement allows you to:

• A. Organize grading immediately
• B. Escort the students to the playground and supervise them while they play
• C. Free time to relax
• D. Dismiss early for lunch

Answer: (B)

When students are released to the playground after a long writing task, you still have the responsibility to keep them safe and under control. Escorting them and supervising while they play lets you enforce rules, watch for hazards, and handle any behavior issues promptly. It also provides a brief, structured way to transition from quiet work to movement, helping students reset before returning to the next activity. This option aligns with the duty to supervise students during transitions and outdoor activities. It isn’t about grading, it isn’t free time for you, and it isn’t an early lunch dismissal.
