U luv Skippy!

This week in Maths we have been working on world times. We were split up in groups and had to find out how different people knew the time.

My group had to find out how the stone age recorded time!

The stone age!

The stone age was between 5 MYA. MYA stands for millions of years ago.

The Stone age people knew there were 365 days in a year by the position of the stars and planets. When a star or planet was in the same position as the first day of the year a whole year has passed.

When a day went by they put a stone down and at the end of a year they counted all the stones and the anwser was how many days were in a year.

The olympics are close so i decided i would do Tag Galaxy on olympics. Click here to go to the website.

My clustrmap is dear to me. I look at it all the time and can’t wait to see another dot appear. I am getting more dots each week. I even have one in Saudi Arabia. I didn’t know it was from there so i looked it up on google an dit said it was Saudi Arabia. I would love to get one from Sri Lanka or bangladesh.

I have dots form:

• Australia
• USA
• China
• England
• Saudi Arabia
• New Zealand
• The Caribbeans

Here is a picture of how many dots i had on Wednesday 23rd July 2008.
