If I were principal I wouldn't give out homework because kids do a lot of test and worksheets. I would let them have recess because they don't go outside very much. I would let them run in the hall if they are late to class. I would let them bring snacks when they get hungry. If they get bored they can bring electronics. I would also let them print pictures on the computer when they have free time.
Ivan,
I don't know if the running in the halls is a good idea, and sometimes homework is important because you don't have enough time to do everything in the classroom. What kind of electronics? Would the students misbehave if they had Nintendo DS's and PSP's? I am so full of questions about your post, I hope you can answer some of them for me!

If kids start running in the halls won't they run into each other? What kind of electronics could they bring? Would the students be able to focus with the electronics around, would this depend on what the electronics were?
