Kids in Germany

Hello everyone some people are wondering what kids do in Germany so today i will talk about kids' lifes. Kids start off with a light breakfast before going to school. Foods include yogurt, fruit, breads, and granola. Students will oftern walk or ride bikes to school. Computers play a big role in German education. School uniforms are not required for students in Germany similar to the US. At age 10, a child has one of four basic educational options, depending on aptitude: Hauptschule, Realschule, Gymnasium, or Gesamtschule. Depending on the state, Teachers have the final say on which track each child should follow. After all but Gymnasium, students typically enroll in a vocational school where they are trained using a combination of on-the-job training and two days a week in the class. Gymnasium is capped off by taking a test (called Abitur) that determines whether a student may continue on to university studies, which are also free to those who qualify to attend. After school kids usually participate in clubs such as sports or other hobbies. Well thats all for today remember to logg back in tommorrow and check out whats next.<3 BERNARD PEACE OUT
