1. Study Of The Picture

This is a picture of the playground of a school for orphans in Germany. As you examine the picture, see if care has been taken to give the children; a good time.

A German Playground..

Make a list of the things that different groups of children seem to be doing. Which of the games have you played? Are there any going on that you do not know the names of?

Where do you find some girls in the picture? What are they doing?

Do you find older persons helping with the games?

2. Oral Composition

Think of just the kind of playground you should like to have for your school. Decide upon these points, at least: size, location, surface, arrangements for different games. Make a diagram of your plan. Have in mind the safety of the younger children.

Be ready to stand before your class and describe your ideal playground clearly. You may put your diagram on the board before class and refer to it and to notes about your plan, if you wish.

You will be interested in comparing the different plans, especially the boys' with the girls'. See if one playground would do for your school.
