6th Graders

These kids have too much energy for their own good. We hosted a lock-in Friday night (8p-8a). One of the first questions they had upon arrival was, "Do we have to go to sleep?" I thought I was up for it. While we did have a quite time starting at 2am, I agreed to stay up and keep movies going until morning. I think I was the only one up at the start of the second movie. I caught a quick nap and woke in time to change to the third movie. The concrete floor sleeping surface had something to do with it also.

I felt good that the few kids that stood in the corner determined to not have any fun or enjoy no part of the evening got over within the first hour. These kids know how to have fun together. Most of the kids brought an outside friend to the lock-in. I was surprized by the old school rap on one the kid's ipod. Some of the stuff I enjoyed in the early eighties. (My break dancing years... yes I know the worm very well).

I love teaching them on Wednesday nights.
