09/21/06 -- Recess -- once extinct in Atlanta schools -- is making its way back. Just don't call it recess. School officials prefer "unstructured break time" or "wellness initiative."

But to Selema Gonzalez, a fourth-grader at Atlanta's M. Agnes Jones Elementary School, recess is just recess.

"What we like to do at recess is jump rope, play with a hula hoop and just play with all our friends," Selema said during a "National Recess Week" kick-off event this week. "Kids need to get out and have some fun."
