10 Images That Will Give You Intense Memories of Elementary School

Elementary days are way over, time definitely flies by and a new generation of elementary students now take your spot. Whether you loved or hated those elementary school days, it definitely had an influence on your childhood. As a young adult, be ready to have an intense nostalgic feeling. Here are 10 images that will give you intense memories of elementary school:

The recorder

Hot Cross Buns never sounded so good! Chances are you probably played this instrument in music classes. The recorder served as a bridge for students to develop music skills and if they ever wanted to perform a musical instrument later on in life.

Parachute

Chances are you associate the parachute when you had field day or some sort of team building exercise in gym class. The parachute defiantly served as a highlight for those fun careless days of elementary school. It definitely brought everyone together.

The alphabet being hung up around the room

One classroom decoration essential to elementary education includes the alphabet being hung up around the room. For me, it was definitely a decoration that every single teacher decided to put up around the classroom from the beginning of kindergarden all the way to fifth grade.

Pencil sharpener on the wall

This old fashioned pencil sharpener could be something from the 90's or early 2000's but times have changed, and this was the original way how to properly sharpen a pencil. For me, breaking a pencil would be a major problem and it took so much time to get the perfect sharpened pencil.

The sound of a scratching chalkboard never sounded good 

The sound of nails scratching the chalkboard will haunt you and bring chills down your spine. The intense sound of the nails scratching the chalkboard was one of those memories you least enjoyed. While making your way to higher education these chalkboards are less used in the classroom.

Recess time meant playing kickball 

Recess was definitely a time to play sports or catch up with friends, and the sport that was most popular was kick ball. It was definitely a good day when you lead your team to victory by running all three of the bases before you were tagged out.

All those fun holiday parties 

In middle school you probably attended your first dance. However, for elementary school you had many themed parties to have fun such as Halloween, a Holiday party or a Valentines Day party. These parties often had delicious food, fun games, music and parent chaperones helping out.

Pizza on Fridays for lunch were the bomb

One way to end the school week on the right foot had to be eating pizza for lunch. The pizza was glorified for students and made the students happy to eat.

School buses

The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round. If you walked or had someone take you to school you still associate the bus with elementary school since they would take you on special field trips.

Multiplication tests 

These quick time sheets where teachers quizzed you on retaining simple arithmetic were a workout for your brain. These tests were given usually once a week and served as a tool to see if you retained the information you learned.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
