I remember in second grade, my teacher let us color on wax paper and then we took clothespins and pipe cleaners and made butterflies and put it on a card for our Momma's. It must have been for Mother's Day or something. I don't know why this stands out in my memory, but it does!
ReplyDeleteFun thing I remember doing in school...I think I was in 4th grade and I wanted to be an actress. So, I got all of my friends to join me as we pretended we were making a movie! We'd pick it back up the next day at recess. It may have only lasted a week, I sure can't remember anymore...but it was really fun having all of my friends playing with me! Of course as I got older, I got stage fright! LOL! O'well! It sure was fun!
ReplyDeletehm, I just remember making a solar system out of styrofoam. at the time, I thought it was the coolest project ever. :) thanks for the giveaway!

ReplyDeleteBecause I was an athlete in school, I was pretty fit. I remember in my HS gym class, we were required to do push ups at the beginning of each class. I loved being able to do more push ups than most of the boys in my class and being able to keep up with the other athletes ... and I even did the normal push ups, not "girl push ups!" In short, I loved gym.
