My older one in 6th grade - they had a small class project. Design something, get it made, and then come up with an advertising for it and present in class. 4 kids in the team. They designed it, got it 3d printed at school and had a skit ready for the advertisement before heading home for the weekend.
Three of the girls have phones. The three are texting each other during the weekend about this project. By Saturday afternoon, they realize that none of them have the printed artefact. Is it with the 4th person? How do we contact her? .....
By Sunday morning we are in panic mode. What is our backup? Plans discussed...alternate plans made...there was a Plan C and even a Plan D.....I had to cut some wood and make something that looked roughly like a bottle. Had to take the kid to a craft store and get some wood paint.....Am guessing the other two parents were also helping out with their backup plans...
Next update was Monday evening...'oh...we found it in the classroom...we will use it tomorrow for our skit...!'
The girl without the phone and her folks had a pretty peaceful weekend am guessing....
