Mathletics Here - Frances ft Lauren


Hi my name is Frances. In the holidays Lauren and i went to Herbertville.  Along the way we saw some things:

1
1.    The Longest Place Name in The World.  This place has 3 & 7/26's alphabets in its' name - that is 85 letters.  The name is in memory of Chief Tamatea's brother who was killed here.  It is near Porangahau.

2.    Waterthletics on Herbertville Beach.

3.    Skulduggery Mathletics.

4.    Lambthletics - Lauren and I spent lots of time playing with these lambs.  There were 5 lambs who had lost their mums.  The ones we are holding are called Soxy (Lauren is holding) and Nibbler (the one i am holding). The other three are called Boots, Fluffy and Lucky.  Nibbler, Boots and Soxy are triplets.  The youngest lamb, Nibbler is 2 weeks old, the oldest, Lucky, is 6 weeks old.  Using Mathletics Ipad i calculate the variance is 4 weeks.

5.    Mud Mathletics.  Lauren and I found black mud under the sand at Herbertville.  Some of it was so sinky I sunk up to my knees. 
 

6.    Mathletics with a Spot of Tennis.  On the way home we stopped for a spot of tennis at Wimbledon. Tally-ho!
