Figure 1.--Here two boys are having a little chat during the morning break.
While morning break is commonly a time for serious activity, not all the boys jumped into games of various kinds. Some boys are not sports mjinded. Others were just in the mood to run aeround. Some of the boys were quite willing to chat with friends and compare notes about the day's activities or favorite subjects. This some times involved groups or friends, commonly in the same class. Or we saw groups of two having as chat on a wide range of issues of interest. This was often, but not always boys in the same form. The subjects that come up run the cammit of topics that interest boys of prepschool age, including school activities, teachers, sports, popular TV programs (at day schools), toys, friends, and much more.
