So I got off work a little early today (due to lack of business; I hope this changes soon or I am going to be out a job). Anyway, I went to my kids' school early to pick them up and figured I would just work on some crochet in the car while I waited. To my surprise about 5 minutes after I got there out came my daughter's class.
The 5th graders are learning about the revolutionary war this year and are even putting on a school play about it; my oldest is playing Martha Washington. So one of their lessons was hands- on, so to speak.

There are a few more photos from this in my flickr photos.
I'm 5 feet 4 inches tall, and I'm an adult! ;) A short-ish female, but an adult.
ReplyDeleteyes I understand that there are adults that height but it it is not the average any more. It is on the short side and what was being stated was a fact that was given by the teacher to emphasize how most people have change in physical characteristics over a few hundred years.
ReplyDeleteforgot to say my mother-in-law is either 5 foot 2 inches or 5 foot 4 inches so it didn't surprise me i have friends much much shorter too. So it didn't surprise me just the fifth graders big difference.
