Senior Citizens, remember show and tell time?

I turned up at school as a kid with a Hawaiian shirt on.

I had received it from an American as a gift.

I felt like the 'Bee's knees'.

Yes. I remember. Front of the class & kids always interested.

I didn't like it that much b/c my dad always supplied my item & I'd already written a truck load of reports to him to prove I understood what I was talking about.

He always gave me obscure scientific things that he had access to. It probably would have been fun if I was allowed to participate as a child, but by the time I stood up, I should have been presented a Ph.D. for the thesis involved B4 I ever had a chance to tell my peers about the object.

One was some electronics that were the forerunner of the ignitions that would arm a nuclear warhead. Then I had to explain what kilotons meant & how many lives that involved in a certain populace....

During the days of "stop, drop & cover" as a response to atom bombs it was really disheartening to share information that equaled, "stop, drop & die" there is no cover in an atomic bomb.

Sorry to be a downer here, but that was my reality in youth.

I'd have loved to be able to arrive w/ a jar full of polliwogs in transition to frogs. Dad just wouldn't let things be that simple for me.

I don't remember doing this but my mom told me that i came home one day and said that i got up in front of the class and sang an old Tex Ritter song that we had a record of. Blood on the Saddle. That was in 1946 in the 1st grade.

The final poster broke my heart, I further in s dessert scene, My mum and dad have been the two blind so each and every thing that grow to be a school undertaking grow to be made by using me on my own. In fourth grade I dressed my Troll doll (remember them) in some cotton that I felt grow to be suited, I took the palm tree from the turtle bowl (remember them?) used a replicate from a compact for an oasis water hollow and the Nativity scene camel. I even got here upon sand someplace. i grow to be so proud. i grow to be particular it grow to be the excellent fourth grade undertaking. Then Duran O' M,,, (I remember you, chum) got here in with an challenging wood decrease maze, Dad needless to say made it . there grow to be a stay mouse and cheese. when you consider that I doubt Durand had wood shop, I felt he had cheated, and that i nonetheless call for justice for my excellent Troll doll rendition. LOL

I remember having to stand up in front of everybody but I can't remember what I brought to show.

i'm not a senior citizen . but i remember doing show and tell a long time ago. everyone was impressed by my large barney the dinosaur teddy. haha

Yes, I took my favorite dolly and was so excited about it until it was time to stand up in front of everybody.

Do I remember it? Still participating in it.

It's all show and tell now. We show it and tell how it used to work.

i absolutely hated show and tell. i never saw the point and i never had anything i thought others would be interested in.

Sure do, still at it. Need more with TLWTGFIHE.
