3rd September 2012

Hello, Miss Paton

Can you believe it has been two weeks since you left. How has your trip been? We’re having a great time with Mr. Blackmore. He has been teaching us a lot about space.


We have learnt new games like fly and running red rover. Mr. Blackmore has taught us easier ways to solve multiplication facts like 5 x 5 = halve the 5 = 2.5 take away the decimal = 25


We had a soccer tournament at point england reserve. The people in my team were Oh s’mar, Isaac, Patrick, Halatoa, Christopher, Rose, Alazay, Angel, Lavinia and Menchun. I was the goalkeeper and I saved 12 shots. Mr. Blackmore was our coach. We won 2 games, lost 3 games and tied 1 game. We came 6th out of the whole competition.


From,
Jacob
