My Crazy Monday At School

Hi all,

First of all, everybody at school is saying "hi" and "ciao" and I am wondering if they are saying "hello" or "goodbye." Did you know that "ciao" means both? So what I want to know is how are you supposed to know if someone is starting a conversation with you or ending one? Anyway, we had a crazy math test today. We had to divide both halves of fake profit money and write five paragraphs about why math is awesome. Can you believe that? Come on! We should vote to see exactly how many third graders think math is awesome. I, for one, like math, but this particular task, not crazy about. My favorite part of the day, as always, was gym, but all of us were sweating profusely because our gym teacher made us play hockey with long sleeved pinneys on! Don't get me wrong. I love gym and I love hockey, but I don't love sweating like a pig. So I hope tomorrow I can figure things out. As a side note, I think school should only run from Tuesday to Friday, and that someone should really, seriously consider a four day school week. Bye for now. I mean, ciao for now,

Kate
