1. Books and materials used for teaching in the classroom and for learning at home.

2. The books and materials used for teaching in the classroom and for learning at home at the decade of 70's and 80's are not very different from those used by us in our days. The most basic difference is Technology. Back then there weren't computers, printers or interactive whiteboards and therefore the lesson was not done the way it is today.

3. The teachers were not giving photocopies to the students, but they were writing the exercises on the blackboard and the students were copying them to their notebooks. All the lesson was focused on the teacher.

4. On the contrary, nowadays it is common that the lesson is accompanied with a presentation through the interactive whiteboard, where pupils can see photos, videos and also read a text.

5. School buildings, number of students in a class, school facilities.

6. The building of school in the 1970 - 1980 contained teachers' lounge, classes, cafeteria and library.Additions to Annex and Elementary school buildings during the decade resulted in their taking their current form.

7. The schools had only boards with chalk and not interactive boards. The students were 30 - 40 in each class. There were sporting facilities like football and basketball.

8. Dress code

9. BOYS: The boys were wearing dark blue jakets with white collar and troussers.

10. GIRLS: On the other hand, girls were wearing blue aprons with white collar

11. Games at school

12. MOTHER MAY I? Kids would ask “mother” if they could take two steps, a giant skip, or a hop, etc. to get close enough to tap the mother. She would say “Yes you may.” If you failed to ask permission without saying Mother May I, not only would you be rejected, but you’d have to start from the beginning again

13. HIDE AND GO SEEK If you were “it” you’d negotiate a count off number with the rest of your friends. You would then cover your eyes and count to said number while the rest of the your friends ran to a hiding place. You would then hollar – Ready or not, here I come and go on the prowl to find your friend’s hiding spots

14. DUCK DUCK GOOSE Everyone sits in a circle while one kid goes around, tapping the head of each person and says “Duck” along the way. Then the person taps a head and hollers “Goose!” He runs and the goose has to get up and give chase with the intent of tagging him before he gets back to the space where the goose was sitting.

15. SIMON SAYS‍ Simon would order his friends to do something specific, beginning each request with Simon says. If you did what he said without him saying Simon Says, then you had to go back and start over.

16. WHAT TIME IS IT, MR. FOX? Mr. Fox is at one end of the field with his back turned to the group of kids at the other end. They holler -What time is it, Mr. Fox? He responds with a time (12 o’ clock or 1 o’ clock). The group of kids take that many steps. This repeats until they are close enough, and Mr. Fox shouts “Midnight!” The kids turn and run while Mr. Fox gives chase, trying to catch as many as he can.
