Funny animals.


 Many animals are funny
and some are a bit crazy.
Watch this video and see how funny they are.
In this video there is a cat going under the door,  a dog walking on the monkey bars in a playground and a kitten climing the stairs too.
This video makes me happy when I am sad.






Chewing Gum.

How would you like it if you had ten of these in front of your face all day? Not actually paying any attention or bothering about what you are saying but just going like this. (scroll down for the beautiful .gif)
 Repeatedly. Even after you told them to throw that darned thing in the bin.
As from tomorrow, till the day I die, chewing gum is prohibited and only allowed when I expressely say so. It's  bad manners to chew with your mouth open too, most of you know this or have learnt it recently.
Kind thanks.
Sorry for the gross cartoon, but that's what my class looked like today. Multiply it by six or ten.

My Grandmother's Birthday






 
Today was my grandmother's 80th birthday. It was a wonderful sunny day so the family met on my aunty's roof garden for lunch. The family was hiding to give my nanna a surprise.  Her mouth fell wide open when she saw us! We played with my aunty's dog. He was named Wallace.
He was chasing me and my sister. Wallace is a kind dog to all people.
I love him like he was mine. My favourite food today was the cupcakes with ice-cream at the end.


I love my nanna.

One Direction


Hello Miss. Din l-istampa hi ta' Harry Styles tal-One Direction. L-aktar diska li nħobb hi What Makes You Beautiful. 

Today's lesson and a bit more - Note from Miss UPDATED

Edit and update: I have deleted some posts, because I like children to evaluate what they post. If you are not sure of 99% of your spelling, hit save not publish. We can sort it out later. Thanks.
2. Here are the year 4 half yearly past papers. For your future reference. 

As you can see from the posts after this one, today the children wrote about Spring. 

There's a great Spring theme on www.purplemash.com, which the children can use at home, but we used a software based programme called 2Simple. The pupils today had to design their own Spring themed border and draw their own picture. They also had the task of choosing an appropriate font, a new one they've never used before. They also had to remember to save on their pendrives, in two formats, one of them being .png, which allows it to be showed to the rest of the world. We have plenty of writing prompts in the class, and they had to find out the right spelling. Of course, some spelling is bound to come out all wrong (surprise surprise) but for the time being, I'm cutting them some slack, as there are a lot of new skills they have learnt in a short time. 
So basically, that is why I have asked all of you to do a separate gmail account and give the password and email to your children. As with all things ICT, monitor their activity at home . Their activity on this blog is well-monitored by myself. 
A lot of children are writing daily, some of them are posting their short texts here. I'm very happy with the work they've done so far. 
I would like to thank the parents who have taken time and interest to post comments under their children's work. I know life's busy, so I appreciate your input even more. It means a lot to your children and motivates them to work harder and give their best. 

Thanks, MissC

P.S There's a note in the diary that asks children to study their X2 X3 X4 multiplication tables. There's a test coming up. We do revise these daily in class, but a lot of children need a push from home. I am not 100% satisfied with the fluency and knowledge of the tables  of some of them (unfortunately, it has to be done by rote, but it can be done through song and games-as we do in class). 
P.P.S AND V.IMP : Use Educationcity.com. They are fun exercises. They will help you with your tables. Anybody taking up the Educationcity challenge? Will remind you again tomorrow.
