Math
Today we did some tricky problems in measurement using the strategy of drawing a picture. Can you figure out these two problems?

Spongebob lives 13km west of Squidward. Patrick lives 11km east of Squidward. How far apart do Patrick and and Spongebob live?

Mickey lives 72 km west of Minnie. Goofy lives 36km east of Mickey. How far apart do Minnie and Goofy live?

Hint: Draw your line and start with the first clue.
                            
Track and Field
Correction: Practices will be Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We will be practicing dance on Tuesdays. Please bring your gym clothes and running shoes EVERY DAY. 

Check the blog on the weekend. Some of you are still having some difficulty punctuating dialogue. I will post some examples for practice.
