Minister of Education,
I am writing to try and stop you from taking maths away from the NZ schools.
Why take such an important subject, when the other not so important ones get to stay? Why?
First of all, we are all gonna have to use maths in the future. To tell the time and pay for necessities.
We also have to count, measure and tell shapes.
What happens if a child never learns to tell the time? Maybe this will: They would always be late to meetings,
they will never know the date. The ignominy, right?
I hope this changed your mind, sir.
Sincerely,



Erin-Jae

Chapter Chat - Chapter Chat is one of my favorite experiences because we get to read a book, and we also get to choose fun things! Mangahigh - Mangahigh is very amazing. You get to do maths games and quizzes. I prefer to do the quizzes. Moana Reading - I love Moana reading as we can help the Moana Nui kids develop their reading skills.

The mechanical computer was made in England, and the programmable one was in Germany Computers became famous because they were marketed for people who weren't that "techy". How has it changed over time? Compared to the earlier computers, the computers got thinner, lighter, and easier to carry throughout the years.
