THE THANG:
Courtesy of my eldest 2.0 who is finishing up 8th grade, we took a 10 question multiple choice final exam. After listening to a question, PAX bear crawled to the cone representing their answer. Correct answers got stars (20 Star Jumps), incorrect answers got 10 burpees.
Questions included:
– What is the line of latitude separating North and South Korea? (36 | 38 | 40 | 41)
– Which of these is NOT an invention from the Gilded Age? (airplane | dishwasher | barbed wire | repeating rifle)
– How many valence electrons are in a Halogen? (3 | 5 | 7 | 0)
– In what Act does Tybalt die in Romeo & Juliet? (2 | 3 | 4 | doesn’t die)
– Which character doesn’t die in Romeo & Juliet? (Tybalt | Paris | Benvolio | Mercutio)
– Which is NOT one of the 7 main elements of art? (unity | shape | form | value)
– How many naturally occurring noble gases are there? (5 | 6 | 7 | 8)
– Which of these is not a part of the brain? (Pons | meninges | arachnoid | phalanges)
– Which of these is equal to 1? (i^2 | i^3 | i^4 | i^i)
– How many sharps are in the key of A major? (0 | 1 | 2 | 3)
Afterwards, we moseyed to the playground. PAX were given the opportunity to “pull up” their grades. In groups of 3, one person ran around the community center, one did pull-ups, the other did a “plank-to-push-up” (from low plank, extend your arms to high plank without moving your hands). After 2 full rotations, pull-ups were swapped out for hanging leg raises and the ground exercise was swapped out for dips.
To ensure we were all well-rounded students, everyone did 10 copenhagen plank dips per side on the low wall by the playground.
Back at startex, we held a hollow body hold until the final bell, announced by Alice Cooper’s “School’s Out”.
MOLESKINE: No retribution may be visited upon my daughter for her part in creating this workout.
COT: Everyone shared a moment of gratitude. I will add an additional moment of gratitude by thanking all the PAX in attendance for sharing. It was a great way to end the proceedings.
Anyone remember how many they got right/wrong? I think CubCadet might have done the best with around a 70% or 80%, but I can’t confirm that. On the brain question, I noticed that everyone followed Black Lung and Vector, except Hedwig who immediately recognized his error.
