- Drama is a recreational activity that helps develop students' confidence by allowing them to perform onstage. It helps with memorization skills and develops critical thinking skills as well, as they use the plays to think about the world around them. In addition, many pieces allow children to learn more in-depth about history or another culture by pretending to be a part of it for the performance. Drama also helps children learn teamwork and develops camaraderie between each other.
- Recreational sports not only help keep students in shape and healthy, but also help them develop their fine motor skills. When organizing a team sport, it is important to realize that competitiveness doesn't necessarily need to be the major factor. Instead, you can focus on teamwork, developing sportsmanship skills and endurance. Students can participate in teams that play "against" other schools or simply compete with one another on an intramural level.
- Students can learn quite a bit about the natural history in their local area as well as get hands-on science experience participating in activities at a local nature reserve or by going on organized nature walks as a class. If you can arrange it, camping is a great way for students not only to learn about nature, but to grow closer to one another and help develop better interpersonal skills in the process.
- Museum trips can help students explore and learn about local history and can give students a broader perspective on events that have happened a world away. Students can also learn about animals that live nearby or far away, and learn in a hands-on environment about scientific discoveries planets away. While a museum trip is usually fun for the students, they will also be learning along the way.
