Good morning. We’re fast approaching the end of Week 2, and so at the halfway stage this week, let’s look at the leaderboard.
Readtheory: 1st Giovanna, 2nd Mikey, 3rd Maks
Prodigy: 1st Elysia, 2nd Jude, 3rd Matthew A
Duolingo: 1st Alex, 2nd William, 3rd Louise
I’ll post at the end of Friday who the winners are for the week, so you have 2 days to climb the leaderboard!
Maks sent a photo of his completed maths maze from yesterday’s maths learning. Excellent, Maks – those are some very tiny fractions you’ve worked out there!
Louise has been busy baking banana bread; it looks very enticing and has given me cake cravings! Well done, Louise.

1. Put this week’s words into an envelope/wallet. 2. Share the tokens (could be anything – beads, buttons, stones) equally between the group. 3. One person in the group will be the caller, and will read a word for you to spell. 4. If you think you are able to spell it, bet as many tokens as you like. 5. If you’re not sure, you can sit out of that round but you still have to pay the pot one token. 6. Betting players write the word down. 7. Those who spell it correctly divide the pot equally.
