    About this ebook

    Some of the most interesting experiences and lessons we get from school, happen at recess. We learn about building skills, following rules, playing fair, making our best efforts, and handling disappointment. We also learn that some students are better at some things than others, and that’s OK. We also learn that there are many ways to play and have fun. This story tells about the many things that can happen to a curious little girl at recess in a School in St.Lucia. Join Wyetta in her recess adventures.

      I don’t know why girls have to wait so long in line for a chance to play Chiney Skip, I complained, as I waited fifth in line to play the most popular game in the schoolyard during recess. 

      I watched as Sabrina skillfully jumped up and down in a pattern on the long elastic band, stretched out like a rectangle. Two girls stood about five feet apart holding the elastic band, first, behind their ankles, then their knees, then their thighs, and then up to their waist.

Someone always walked away with a skinned knee or elbow, and sometimes even with a busted lip.

      Sabrina was still jumping when the elastic band was up to the thighs. She was carefully stepping on the elastic band without getting out by tripping or falling.
