probably got a good grade then? 
LOL, yup.
Of course the class was taken for a ride through Ridderkerk and when they returned they were singing "a 10 for Mark" ......and well, the teacher couldn't really do much else then give him that 10 (grades are giving at a 0 to 10 scale here, 10 is highest
Thorsten the GMC and Jeep _were_ the surprise
Kids at school here have to give presentations (twice a year) about a subject they can choose themselves. They have to stand before class and talk about the subject in a structured way (introduction,why did I choose this subject, etc.etc.) These days they of course use a computer with the class' Smartboard to show a Keynote or Power Point presentation to go with the story. They often also show things that have to do with the subject and Mark brought a couple of model cars and a remote controlled tank he got recently.
Mark is heavily into WW2 and military. Quite incidentally, my wife's cousin collects these WW2 vehicles. He owns a Jeep, three GMC trucks and a half-track.
We have been touring with them already last year at veteran's day in The Hague.
Anyway, Mark asked if he would come to show the GMC during the presentation. They drove up in front of the classroom windows right at the end of the presentation and the kids went nuts. As a bonus they had also brought the Jeep (in the back of the truck
)
