ASIJ Class of 1961 6th Grade
Mr. Swindell's Sixth Grade..(1)

This year, we made two class trips. The first trip was to Ueno Zoo where we saw many interesting animals from all corners of the world. The second trip was made to Haneda Airport where we saw many airplanes and where people leave by airplane for many places. There, at Haneda, we also saw the places airplanes fly and were amazed at the short time it takes for a plane to go around the earth. We were amazed at the huge airplane motors and compared them with the electric motors we had so much fun with in class later.

   

We had two softball teams this year, the girls team and the boys team. We also had a very good football team and a fine basketball team.

Our newspaper was one of the most interesting things we did this year. We hope to continue our newspaper work next year in the 7th grade.

We had fine class parties this year. They were wonderful and everybody had fun.

We have had fun this year and will remember many, many things from the 6th grade, but most of all we will remember the many things we did together.
