I was just teaching some kids “school” jump rope and am trying to remember all the “grades. I remember Kindergarten is running through without touching the rope. Gr.1 is one regular jump, Gr. 2 is spin around while jumping two jumps, Gr. 3 was touch the ground (froggy style) while doing 3 jumps, Gr. 4 was close your eyes while jumping 4 jumps, Gr. 5 was getting in the rope on the opposite side (backwards) and jumping 5 regular jumps, Gr. 6 was jumping with your legs spread far apart (we called them the splits), Gr. 7 was jumping on one foot 7 jumps, Gr. 8 was the snake (we lowered the rope just off the ground and slithered it back and forth and the person jumping had to jump back and forth over it 8 times…I’m at a lose for the upper grades…anyone else know them??

What a great website! I was trying to think of the one two three alary game – and I think now I have all of them. We used to have ten tricks and they got harder as you went (clapsie, double clapsies, waterfall, etc.). Also to the lady from Toronto with the ball in the toe of a sock – I grew up in small town BC – we used to say “hello hello hello sir, can you come out to play, sir, no sir, why sir, because I have a cold sir, where did you get the cold sir, behind the kitchen door sir, etc.

A my name is Alice…. there were 4 other women all aged about 40-55 ish and NOT ONE knew what I was talking about. Grantd I live in Houston now, but some of these women are from back east, like PA.

Betty Botter bought some butter. “But,” she said, “the butter’s bitter. If I put it in my batter, it will make my batter bitter.” So Betty Botter bought some butter better than the bitter butter, and she put it in her batter. And her butter wasn’t bitter. So . . . ’twas better Betty Botter bought a bit of better butter.
