Ace Academics

27/11/2017

The Story: My younger students and I are working on https://www.khanacademy.org/ which is a wonderful site for learning. My students want to know if I have a Black Hole Badge which are "legendary and unknown. They are the rarest Khan Academy Awards." We suspect you can get one if you have 10 000 000 points.

The challenge: Add 300 000 points over the holidays.

The plan: Work 1 hour or earn 10 000 every day...which ever one comes first.

Starting point: I already have 2 350 190 points
Day 1: Now I have 2 360 565 :)

Learn for free about math, art, computer programming, economics, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, finance, history, and more. Khan Academy is a nonprofit with the mission of providing a free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere.

A simple explanation but is anything ever that simple? Maybe we need to have a look at how we treat our boys.

“Say sorry to your brother.” “But he’s the one who–” “Say it!” you insist, an edge of warning in your voice. He huffs, rolls his eyes to the side, and says flatly, “Sorry.” “Say it like you mean it,” you demand. “Sorrrrry,” he repeats, dragging out the word slowly with bulging eyes and dripping insi…

Hi guys, anyone in Pretoria have clothing they want to donate but don't know where? Well, I can help with that. Please contact me by Thursday to drop your oldies with me and I'll deliver it to Hanna Charity (see link below). Note: She said old underwear is also needed desperately so pop your grandma panties in the wash and buy some new ones ;)
