Childhood Games, Class #7, Thursday period 1
Today class met in the park again, with tape lines down in a large rectangle, bisected by another line in the middle. Lily was looking semi-dressed down today, with a whistle around her neck.
"You've been a great class," she said, "and it's been terrific teaching you all. And because this is our last class, I'm going to show you a time-honored tradition of aggressive cruelty and competitiveness called dodgeball. Here are the rules. I've divided you into teams. Each side starts with one ball so we have two total. You proceed to whip the ball at someone on the other team. If you hit them, they're out and they need to go sit over there. But if they catch the ball, you're out. Last person standing wins it for their team. Also, I have a first aid kit here, complete with band-aids for you attention-grabbers. Any questions? Okay, go play!"
