Hi Zaeeda,
ReplyDeleteOh no! Why would you put baby peas and seafood down your sink?! I love those things! Actually, I like all the things on your list!
I learned some interesting things about bumblebees. I did't know they were so strong or that they were declining in numbers. Now that I think about it, I don't see that many bumblebees around now.
Well done on solving that maths problem! I love the way you have presented at as DLO too - it's very clear and easy to understand.
Best wishes,
Ms Nalder
