Well, we went out behind the trees to tie them up, so no teachers saw us. But we never set them on fire, honest. Although I did once nearly set my uncle’s big woodpile on fire, playing with gasoline and matches once.

I don’t let my 2nd grade boys tie the girls up during recess. This is mostly because it would be followed by them setting the girls alight then chanting around the bonfire. I teach in a rough school.

so far, no rotating partners. i lead. *i* lead. alpha follows. i. lead.

uh, how do i spot the girls who would let me tie them up, purely for curiosity’s sake?

The lesson here is not to sell yourself short: the girls would totally let you tie them up today, too.

Do you guys rotate partners during class? this is really essential, otherwise you just learn your partner’s bad habits, and not how to really lead and follow.

Dancing is great fun! lindy hop is my favorite. good luck!
