Class Assembly

This morning was Godzooky 1’s class assembly. They were comparing old toys and new toys. Cup and ball games, wooden hoops compared to new board games and action figures. As usual Godzooky 1 understated his role in proceedings. He had a few lines to say, but also played the part of a shopkeeper when they pretended to buy toys. I was totally amazed on two counts: not one of the children when listing their favourite toys mentioned a Playstation or other video game. Also it took over quarter of an hour from the time the class sat down to when all the rest of the school were seated ready to watch. During that time not one of his class talked, fidgeted or messed around! There was the usual split of children barely whispering their lines with excruciating shyness, and the odd one or two who shout at the tops of their voices! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Godzooky 1 came home with a joke last night, I think it got lost part way home though: He started off with “ What do you call a moose with no eyes?” Cue peals of laughter from me and Mrs Zilla.

    I loved the Joke phase... we're still in it of course but at the beginning... Princess would make up jokes that she thought were hilarious!

    Why did the girl jump into the hot lava? Because she wanted to go to heaven.

    Yeah... she thought that was hilarious...
