Buld a bug

In maths I am learning to build a bug using addition,subtraction,division and times table. The thing that was easy for me was the addition,subtraction and my times table. What I need to learn the most about is my division. I don’t know much about division. I need to extend my self to a higher level.  

Pyramid Solitaire: Ancient Egypt

To play this game, you have to make thirteen. When I first played this game, I didn’t know what to do so I asked someone to help me. After a while I got the hang of it. My highest score for this game was 103,666. I was proud of myself.  What I need to learn next is to multiply by 10,100 and 1000 and multiples of 10,000,000.

Technology with Mr Nobel

Today I was working with Mr Nobel and the other people. We were studying about graphics. First we had to line up and wait for Mr Nobel to tell us to come in. After that we had to pray. After the prayer we had to learn how to draw with a pencil. First we had to sit up straight so we can see the what we are doing. Secondly, we had to hold the pencil with two hands. Thirdly we had to hold the pencil lightly. We practiced by drawing letters. I couldn't do a straight line but I practiced.
  

My Pet Rabbit

I would like to have a pet rabbit. The amount of the rabbit is cost $60 a week. I don’t think that my mum can afford the hutch because there are 2 reasons why,1st reason is that there's not enough money to buy the hutch and 2nd is that my mum has to pay for the bill. My mum wouldn’t like to have a pet because she has to spend all her money on the pet,the house and for us kids. My mum gets a lot of money every week and she has to spend them all on the pet.
