Holidays

I hope you are all having a great holiday. I am sure Ashleigh and Jennifer are enjoying Los Angeles and New South Wales, respectively. Jennifer, you must have managed to avoid the great dust storm last Wednesday to get there.
My thoughts this morning are with Raechel and her family as I hear on the news of the earthquake and tsunami near American Samoa in the Pacific. Raechel is in Western Samoa visiting her family,which is in the same region. I hope they are all safe and well. I know we will all be more relaxed when we hear more news of what has happened in Samoa. Stay safe everyone.

From Ashleigh

multiplication

these last couple of weeks we have been working on multiplication and division facts. One of the activitys was 100 questions where you ruled up 100 questions and found out the answers for them and we started with + and then the teacher told us we would all be moving on to the multiplication facts. My best score is 87 for times but 90 for +. I am very proud of myself.

Candle to Quartz clock

When Mrs McLeod comes into the classroom for the day we start off by learning about Clocks and Time measurement or something.We have been learning about Way back when clocks weren't invented they used to use the sun the moon and the stars as clocks .So when the sun came up the people would get up and when the sun went down and the Moon came up they would go to bed so they could have gone to bed at six o'clock if they wanted to that's a little strange (:
