Adrian’s class got homework of sorts for their Christmas break, in the form of a reading bingo. Five by five squares, with reading challenges like “read on a Monday”, “read in bed”, “read while eating something nice” etc.

But then they get odder. “Read under a tree” in the middle of winter? Well… I guess it’s doable with some planning, although turning pages with mittens can be quite fiddly.

“Read in swimming clothes”, though? What?

Adrian’s solution was to stick one of his legs through his swimming trunks. But I do wonder if the teacher was lazy when doing her part of this project and just copy-pasted a summer reading bingo without actually reading the squares.
