At the end of the school year - teachers are desperate to find activities to get the kids out of the classroom. Some of the basics are listed below.
Number one is the "field day" outdoor sports day. We've had some rain but managed to get this one in. Dave loved it.
Julia did the shot-put and discus - obviously based on her power thighs and ability in squat-thrust type activities.
Can you guess the color team Brian was on? Look at the natural athletic, killer instinct on his team. Teachers couldn't wait to get them outside, in front of the parents, so they didn't have to try to teach them to read in German.
Another Option: End of year school play.
Dave got this one. He played.... a dead guy. I know what you're saying: type casting. But no. He brought "life to the part".
Check out the photo: You're drawn to his corpse.
His mother was soooo happy to take his sport coat out of the dry cleaning bag so he could spread out on the stage.
Final Distraction activity: Pool party.
Even in Germany the teachers enjoy the pool party concept. Here you get the German version. Nice lake, sunny weather but a general attraction to the high diving board.
Brian bragged that his friend had to back down the diving board but he did it twice.
He did this while his mother and I looked at his satisfactory grade in math. He also is mastering the second grade swagger. The kid coming down the ladder probably got an A.
