Tuesday, October 3 (Homework alert!)

 Hi parents,

We had another good day today. In the morning, we learned about the life cycle stages of guppies. We learned that male guppies are smaller, and have colourful tails, whereas female guppies are larger and better at blending in due to their duller colours.

We learned more about the 'ten thousands' place in math, and the students solved a bunch of problems where they had to write the value of the ten thousands place in various numbers.

For example: in the number "245,910", the value of the ten thousands place is '40,000'.

We got to have double gym today because yesterday we missed our gym time due to picture day. We played kickball outside, and had an awesome game in which the Ghost Eevees experienced their first win. Fantastic teamwork all around this time. 

In the afternoon, we did Daily LA, and visited the library, where Ms. Smith showed the students a whole bunch of new chapter book series' that they'll be able to check out starting on Thursday. After that, we'll move to a more free-flow model of using the library, where students can check out books throughout the week, at their convenience.

Ronin's Problem

At my bedroom, I have 3,000,000 laptops, some transformers, 10,000 PC's, 9,000 books, 200 stuffies, 10 pillows, and 8 blankets. There are 3,919,218 things in my room. How many transformers do I have?

Have a nice night!
