A blog created for a cooperation project between the
5th- and 6th-graders at Kalmarsundsskolan, Kalmar, Sweden and Townsend Elementary School in Townsend, Delaware, USA.
Every year in May we have a dayon the school yard with a parade, barbecue and lots of outdoor activities. This year we had tennis, boxing, golf, soccer and lots of other things to do!
For the parade, the classes dress up for a common theme and this year the fifth graders had chosen to look like ballon sellers and the sixth graders were characters from the Simpsons with mr P, our math teacher, as Homer himself. What a day!
Every year in May it´s time for our great tug of war tournament. Today we had the qualifications for tomorrow's final. The fifth graders made a heroic match and were very close to a win, the sixth graders had an easy win in the last match and are now in the final.
They can also do tricks. For example stand on their hind legs.
There is much they will do for a piece of peppers
They are siblings. Hobbe and Rufs are eighteen months old. They love cucumbers and peppers. Their favourite things to do is to eat and rest. And what they eat is mostly hay. They are easy to teach. They like to be patted.
Oskar in grade five was the first outdoor swimmer this year. He opened for the season already April 24. The water temperarure was only 48F or 9C!
