This weekend we did a lot of stuff. Some of us played basketball, and did not go easy on our opponent just because they're ten and have shorter arms: Some of us created science experiments out of sand and water: One of us sang "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" with his fellow fifth graders during the seventh inning stretch of Saturday night's Cardinals game.
