QOTD #00080: “What was your favorite part of elementary school?”
Ah, the elementary school memories: recess, art projects, school lunch, first-day outfits, that amazing teacher you had in 4th grade -- what made those early back-to-school days the best years of your life?

PhysEd and health were the best part of elementary school.
"The best part of elementary school is the physical and health education. I so much love that subject and the activities we do in it. The outdoor activities, so fun with other kids. That was my best memory of elementary school."

The best part of elementary school was being fearless
"The best part of elementary school was not having anxiety. I was a menace to society in elementary school because I didn't care. I had no concepts of shame, of being too loud, so I genuinely had a good time in elementary school. No stress, no fear, nothing, being able to run around and compete. Yeah. Just gender didn't matter. I was able to compete on par with the boys in everything. That was one thing that I hated in middle school was all of a sudden all the guys were taller than me and just faster and stronger, for some reason. Hated that. Puberty."

The best part about elementary school was being around your friends
"The best part about elementary school was, you know, just being around your friends every day, having fun, joking around, playing basketball in gym class. Yeah, that was mainly it, just hanging around friends, getting out of the house and hooping."

Recess was the best part of elementary school
"Part of elementary school. Now this one is kind of hard because I remember elementary school having really good food, really fun times, and I mean everything is kind of more better when you're a kid. But the best thing about elementary school for sure, for sure, for sure has to be the recess. Oh my God. Recess is one of those childhood moments I can never relive."

A lack of responsibilities made life good in elementary school
"I would say the best part about elementary school is that everything was looked after for me. I didn't have to do anything. My lunch was done. There was no responsibilities. Life was pretty good back then. A bit different to now."

Field day was the best party of elementary school, hands down
"Hands down, field day. If you grew up, you had like, I'm pretty sure they still have it now. But when I was growing up, field day was like the Olympics. You could not tell me nothing on field day. I was trying to be the fastest, I was trying to be the No. 1 in everything. I was trying to impress the girls in the little first elementary grade. I was trying to do it all, man. But like as a kid back then, field day was something special. It was really something special. And having your parents come out there to cheer you on. It was like that first taste of what athletics would be like once you got to high school and stuff. So just being in that environment, then just being able to play with your friends and not have to be in class for once and actually having that freedom to just kind of run around and play outside in the heat. Even though it was, even though it was hot, it was still, you still got to go outside. You know, you still got to play around. So it was, it just felt good not to, it felt good. It was a really good feeling back then."

The school shows were the best part of elementary school
"In my opinion, the best part of elementary school was probably the school shows. Yeah, I loved taking part in them, and I always found them so fun, and I think they definitely made school better."

Recess and The Oregon Trail were the best parts of elementary school
"What was the best part of elementary school? Obviously recess and playing Oregon Trail in days where it was raining or history lessons, whatever they called them back in the time. But yeah, that's it. Recess. "

The best part of elementary school is enjoying life with your friends
"I would say the best part of elementary school is, of course, the bond or the fun being with friends. Of course, as kids during elementary school you wouldn't think of such problems in life. You would be a happy-go-lucky kid. You would be enjoying life with your friends and doing such activities with them and just being totally happy."

Movie days were the highlight of elementary school
"Okay, so the best part of elementary school I feel like the days where we would just all sit and watch a movie or when we had the Christmas parties and we would watch like Polar Express or Elf. Whenever they roll the TVs out on those carts, you know it's going to be a movie day, and everybody is just so excited. Also, I really loved certain gym classes or, well, no, field day, field day. Yeah, field day when we did, we had a little scooterville. That was my favorite thing ever. We would ride around the gym on these little scooters, and I just thought that was so fun for some reason."

The best days of elementary school were when Mum worked in the canteen
"Favorite part of elementary school? Ah, easily when my mum worked on the canteen. She came in once a month, and I got everything I wanted for free because every other day was ham and mayonnaise on a breadroll and that is grim as hell."

Not having grades was a great feature of elementary school
"A lot of crap happened to me in middle school in terms of life, not middle school, elementary school. So I mean elementary school was fine. I guess the best part about elementary school was the fact that you really didn't get grades and also probably the fact that most people, when they're in kindergarten, usually don't really give a crap. We're just here trying to survive every day. So that's probably the best part about elementary school. I didn't have a lot of fun back then. A lot of deaths in the family, divorce, and whatnot. It wasn't that great for me, but being a child was fine, I guess. I was pretty cute back then. That doesn't, I can't say the same for now. I think that's gone downhill. But other than that, didn't have too many great times in elementary school, but I did, I did know how to party back then, which really just means I didn't give a crap. That's probably it."

The best part of high school was being on the track team
"The country I currently grow up in and reside, I believe what you call elementary school we call high school or secondary school. And my favorite thing about elementary school was being on the track team because when the other students are in class, and we get called out to the events, we get to leave school. Therefore we have no school work for the rest of the day and that was, that was probably the best part of high school."
