Elementary field days that were hard core and competitive. We were outside all day and our principal brought a starting pistol. First, second, third place ribbons.

Walking field trips to a classmate’s nearby house to see their garden, or have an end of year party there. No school busses. We all walked. One of my classmates was allowed to just hop the fence to his house adjacent to our playground to change clothes after he fell in a mud puddle at recess. We all stood along the fence line and waited for him to come back out.

Playing Red Rover with and dodgeball with our classroom teachers at recess.

Entire school released hundreds of helium balloons with notes attached for some project.

Dancing to “Chicken Fat” (song) played on a record player in lieu of PE. We didn’t yet have a gym.

Pea gravel and asphalt playgrounds with a dangerously high slide. Blacktop track.

6th grade end of year swimming party. We just walked to the pool. Our teacher wore a bikini and was sunbathing next to the principal.
