Package from Merryvale school.

Today was very exciting because we received our package.I was so excited to see what the kids did on their postcards and I really enjoyed reading it.

Basic facts T3W1

I have improved in my basic facts maths on prototec. I have improved because in the school holidays my cousins help me with my time tables.

But I still need to learn my subtraction to 20 by asking my cousins to time me

and give me more subtraction sums to 20.

Raised expectations.

Baked Beans.

Today room 8 baked, baked beans before lunch time we really enjoyed eating it and making it. If you baked, baked beans at home the cost would be 60c each.

Thank you Mr Steve.

Thank you Mr Steve for the pies, chocolate, diet coke, cupcakes, pavlova and also pizza that you have given room 8. We hope that you will have a lovely school holiday.

prototec resutls.

In week three I got 70% at stage6.  In week 10 my results were 80% at stage 6.

I am disappointed with my results because I have not  improved and have
not moved up a stage.
I will have to  make a greater effort to learn my time tables and my division.
I have to achieve within curriculum level 3 in year 6 and will also focus
more to get to a higher stage.

What is lego.

Lego is  small plastic brick toy which children of any age use to make house, cars and buildings.

Ole Kirk Christiansen invent lego in 1946. Ole Kirk Christiansen was from Billund,Denmark. He was a carpenter before he started making toys and lego. He made toys so he could make enough money for his family before christmas.

Ole Kirk Christiansen was inspired by the moulding machine and a little plastic brick. It gave him more ideas how to make the lego pieces. Ole started making teddy bears but he was still thinking about the little plastic brick, he knew there was something special about that block.

When Ole was trying to name the brick pieces he wanted the name to be short and very interesting. When he was thinking of a name a truck appears out of Ole’s window, and he saw a little sigh that said lego. But Ole didn’t know that lego in Latin ment I put together.

Ole was very proud for what he had invented and what he made. And Ole’s son was very proud as well.
