(1,183 posts)to the Pledge we said every morning. Took several days for all of us to remember to put it in. Our classes were about 40 kids then.
I just remembered about 4th and 5th grade were one big class.....1/2 of the nearly 60 kids in each grade. One Nun taught us all, addressing the 4th graders while 5th studies something/read.....and then she switched to the other half...... and we all did just fine.
Amazing that she, . we....and the parents all handled it well and noone complained.
Another thing we did in that school --- I guess our parents volunteered us for the Polio testing program. ----
I was in 6th, my sister in 3rd grade. One of us got the Polio vaccine in a sugar cube.....one of us got placebo. We never learned which was which..
hmmm wonder if that's what's causing all my aching muscles these last 4 years.......right now my forearms ache like crazy. aches/weakness moves all around my arm/shoulders.
