Then when it got to Thursday, a work associate (not even my boss or anyone who SHOULD inform OR ASK me) informed me that I have an additional 3 hours as "activity" time on Fridays. Isn't this untruthful?

I never heard of a 23 hour work week. Usually it's 22.

Activity time=games/cards/hiking/teach them something you know/whatever.

When the weather is nice I'd be outside playing something with the kids (frisbee golf), when the weather sucks I'd be playing cards/boardgames. As long as they talk...who cares what you do.

Was the extra 3 hours considered overtime? If so, go for it. Easier than teaching regular classes. Or just ask the guy why HE is telling you that you have this work to do.
