In E.L.A we are making newspaper articles and eventually we are going to make our own newspaper! I like to write stories and articles so making our own newspaper should be good!
Our challenge today was kings of the court! Sparta tied for 3rd! I wonder what our next challenge will be!
Our teacher talks to herself; does yours? Yes, but she doesn't realize it; she thinks we're actually listening!
PUPIL: Teacher, would you punish me for something I didn't do? TEACHER: Of course not. PUPIL: Good, because I didn't do my homework.
If you had one dollar and you asked your father for another, how many dollars would you have? One dollar. You don't know your arithmetic. You don't know my father !
Today in math we played badminton instead of math for our Olympic events we did OK but we could have done better but we can still win in the end we are not too far away. Go Thebes Go!!!
Today we had another Olympic challenge. It was badminton, Kings and Queens. We had all six teams competing at once: Thebes (YaH!), Corinth, Argos, Sparta, Athens and Olympia. We had three games going on, all 4 min. games. Then at the end of the 4min. games we would tell the scorekeeper how many times we won against the other team we played. We all had loads of Fun!
I think it was fun that we got to play king of the courts instead of math this morning for one of our Olympic challenges. Although Athens came in last for this round we will catch up just like Sparta has! GO ATHENS GO! I wonder what our next event will be...
Canada got another gold medal yesterday in women's hockey. They won 2-0. Go Canada! We'll have to see if the men can do just as well.
