OPTIONAL CLASS PROJECT - Go out into the
school grounds and look at all the neighbouring properties. Choose the
scariest or most innocent looking house, yard or building and then
write a short scary story about a crime that
happens there, using your teacher, principal and school gardener as
victims, under-cover agents or heroes.

Cool science
experiment - Turn your analog watch into a compass by
going out into the playground. Using a watch with hands, NOT a
digital watch, point the number 12 at the sun and then using a thin
twig, paperclip or twist-tie, make a shadow that passes from
the number 12 to the number 6. Look at the number half way
between 12 and the hour hand - and that will be north.
NOTE: This only works here in the southern
hemisphere. The trick in the northern hemispere is to point the hour hand
towards the sun and then the direction halfway between 12 and the hour
hand is south.
