Mary Ann posted on her Facebook a picture of our combination class when we were in first grade and the third grade class. Weren't we in a combination class in our fourth grade with the sixth graders? Seems as if the same students were in that second combination class. Does anybody have a picture of that year?
Won't forget the first day of school when we were sitting in Mrs. Wenstrom's room and then our names were called to go to the room across the hall to join the third graders. My Mother sent a hanky along and I forgot it back in Mrs. W room. Somebody came to the door and asked if it belonged to any of us. I was so bashful and didn't raise my hand.
Then in fourth grade, we were in the room above our first grade room in another combination room with an attractive young teacher that I can't remember her name. I tell my grandchildren that our art project was a copied picture from a color book and we were to color it the same way the teacher had. Same in second grade. Won't forget the jack-o-lantern picture that Mary Ann and I colored by pushing our orange crayon hard on the picture for a vivid orange pumpkin. That teacher, Miss Lee???? lived in Mayville when I was teaching in Mayville. Her niece was in my fourth grade class and told me that her aunt was my second grade teacher. Wish she had come to the school to visit me.
Thank you Mary Ann for sending the picture. It jars many grade school memories.
