YESTERDAY IS HISTORY, TOMORROW IS A MYSTERY BUT TODAY IS A GIFT...THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED THE PRESENT.
-the turtle from Kung Fu Panda (I like this one!)


HOMEWORK:

  • Math: correct your blog question/answer from yesterday and make sure you show your parents your marks record sheet and have them sign it!
  • Science: Sky Detective Folder due Wednesday, Moon quiz Thursday (SLOs 7&8), and make sure you show your parents your marks record sheet and have them sign it!
  • Other: some of you still are without the necessary school supplies and with no agendas and your binders are an absolute mess! PLEASE GET YOURSELVES ORGANISED!!!


REMINDERS:

  • Silver coin carnival FRIDAY...bring coins to play and win!
  • Greek Day Friday...start thinking about your AGORA items and a TOGA!

BLOG ANSWER from yesterday:

600 x 30 = 18 000

The first thing I did was multiply 6x3, and the answer is 18, so I wrote that down. Next, I added the three zeros in the question to the 18, so the answer is 18 000....GREAT JOB!
