Hi 6C!

with utmost regret, i have to announce that after tomorrow, we will have finished ALL the food that we "earned" from cross country. this is due to the fact that our class is made up of hungry "ghosts" who keep telling me to bring MORE food. bringing MORE food per day = the food supply depletes FASTER = you will have nothing to eat sooner.

And guys (you know who you are), please me gentlemanly and don't gobble up all the food on your own/ keep taking what i passed to the girls. take the initiative to pass them to the girls next time. (: they want food too. majority of the time, the girls are left with nothing to eat because you all polished it all up. dont say that its because the girls dont want ok! if you pass it to them, they do take!

Thank you very much

Inez.

PS. i do not have as much money as you think i do/ you wish i had/ i wish i have. i cant keep supplying the class with food to the extent where everyone is fed fully. i can/ do not mind bringing small snacks everyday, but not a lot of them everyday.

Hi 6C!

Hope first week of term 2 went well for everyone!

Anyway, hope that everyone noticed that we have a journal entry assignment for GP. We're suppose to give comments about the work submission system and/or suggest ways to discourage late submissions.

Please note that it's due on Monday, 29 March.

Cheers,
Chyan Wen

Hey 6C!

Hope you all are having a good holiday so far.

If you have already checked SMB, you would have seen Mrs Tan's announcement on the pop quiz she has just given us.

So to speed up our productivity, shall I split the class up to do different questions?

Questions 1-20 will be done by Ling Feng, Zheng Jie, Jie Xuan, Daniel and Esther.
Questions 21-40 will be done by Fang Ming, Inez, Jasmine, Kimberley and I.
Questions 41-60 will be done by Delwin, Churn Hoe, Nicholas, Benedict and Hong Kee.
Questions 61-80 will be done by Mei Qi, Samantha, Qin Hong, Samuel and Xiaolu.
Questions 81-100 will be done by Leif, Jie Min, Yidi, Xunda, Yuanzhao and Zhou Yi.

To speed up the process even more, perhaps you all can even split up the work among the group.

When you/your group is done with your set of questions, please do upload the answers on class blog! Mrs Tan put up the announcement yesterday so yeah... :(

Let's do this as a class k! Then we can do less work yet still accomplish the task. Class blog user and password will be sent to your email if you have already forgotten!

If you have any queries please feel free to ask me :D
