Dear children,

We started off today by giving out the prizes to the Group of July -- Robotics! This month's competition was intense, with Stampy, Detectives and Stars following closely behind Robotics.

Matthew, Christian, Shineta and Shaan have worked very hard in their studies and their behaviour in the past month and truly deserve to win the award.

With Robotics winning this month, Christian and Shineta have moved up to join Ranjiv at Level 2, while Matthew has joined 14 others as a Level 1 winner.

Shaan has emerged as the first child in P3/5 TRUTH to win the Level 3 prizes! He has earned a packet of rose seeds, a blue erasable pen which he can use whenever he likes for Mr Wong's class work, and a Laptop Access Pass which entitles him to use a laptop anytime after he has finished his work during Mr Wong's class. Would you like these prizes too? Aim to hit Level 3 soon too! :)

The winners for the "P3/5 Fractions Games Championship" were also revealed this morning.

With a Level 20 score of 75500 points earned from 59 correct pairs and 3 misses, Shineta emerged the champion for Game 1 -- "Matching Equivalent Fractions"!

Yuqi became the champion for Game 2 -- "Fruit Splat (Fractions Addition)" with a score of 264 points earned from 57 hits and 13 misses.

Shaan won Game 3 -- "Fruit Splat (Fractions Subtraction)" with a score of 139 points earned from 49 hits and 4 misses.

Well done, champions! Besides winning two water guns each, they also earned Early Lunch Passes which they can use for themselves or with a friend for early lunch during last-period lessons with Mr Wong. 

Are you interested to win prizes like these too? 

Watch out for the "P3/5 Money Games Challenge" coming up later this week! ;)

During Maths lesson, we continued learning about subtraction of money with Calvin and Hobbes. Along the way, we met Uncle Muthu and the lousy blue thing. Those of you who were sharp caught the rhymes in my story too. ;)
