The document summarizes a traditional boat race game that can be played in the spring and summer. Students in a 5th grade class will make paper boats, write wishes on scraps of paper to put in the boats, and launch their boats in a river to race. The goal is to be the first to cross the finish line, thinking positively even if not winning since their wish has a chance to come true. After the race, all the paper boats will be picked out of the river. The document also shares some of the students' wishes, such as becoming a professional athlete or finding love.
