DECIMALS

Hey dudes,
In maths, we have been... arrrgh, forget it. WALT convert between percentages, fractions and decimals. Right now my group is TRYING as HARD as they CAN to understand what the teacher is going on about. For example he wrote down on our modelling book, 0.134 and then he showed us on the deci-mat what it was worth. Then he wrote down a 1\2 and said "what would this be in decimals". The answer was 0.5 but before we worked it out he showed us on the deci-mat by folding it in half.
So now my group... sort of knows what decimals are so yay another happy ending.

CROSS COUNTRY

Hey dudes,
As you probably know from my last post about cross country that I really like it and win quite often. This cross country I was a bit more nervous because I haven't been doing as much training because I wasn't playing soccer. So I thought the whole race that I was going to come 2nd or 3rd. But I was leading the whole way with a kid called, Kayla on my tail. It was VERY challenging on the last hundred metres because I was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tired and Kayla was coming up fast. But (Amazingly and Awesomely) I came 1st. (I'm not sure if Amazingly and Awesomely and words but who cares) When I crossed the finish line I collapsed ( Don't worry I wasn't unconscious) and refused to get back up until about 5 minutes pasted. My mum presented me with a plastic gold medal which I bit while people were taking photos of me. That day was pretty awesome and I am looking forward to interschool (which I plan to win!)
