Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them

by Danielle

Have you ever read the Harry Potter books, well if you did you know that Harry carried around a book called Fantastic Beasts. Well they are turning the book into the movie series. The first movies called Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them. The movie is about Newt Scamander and his case of monsters. Some of those monsters get loose in the muggle (Harry Potter word for humans) world and the wizarding world must work with the muggle world to get them back in the case.

Hear are some fun facts about the movie:

The Bloop

by Michael


In 1997 a mystery sound was heard. Some scientist put mega microphones in the water and heard a loud noise that could be 5000 km apart and it was heard over the Pacific Ocean. Some scientist found out what the sound was. You thought it was a big animal but sadly it was an underwater volcano explosion!

First I thought that the bloop sound was real until I saw some videos and saw the truth. I was really annoyed about that but it still sounds very freaky so it is still going to be pretty hard to know what the sound came from!

Here is a video I found

Dolphin Facts

By Xiyan


Dolphins are related to whales and porpoises. Dolphins has a fish shaped body but they  are mammals. Dolphins have lungs but they have to go to the surface to breath. Dolphins usually are 4 to 30 feet long. They weigh between 100 to 20,00 pounds. Some kinds of dolphins live in rivers. Dolphins have a layer of fat called blubber. Blubber helps the dolphin float and keeps them warm. Dolphins uses sounds to sense the places of underwater objects (My favorite fact!). Dolphins have excellent hearing. Groups of dolphins communicate by making a clicking sound. Most dolphins live in groups. Several kinds of dolphins are endangered. Thank you for reading about dolphin facts!


World Math Day 2016

by Brian
It was another math day.
We played a lot of math games like Math Bingo and Toothpick Challenge. We played Kakooma too.
We also played some math challenges on our Chromebooks like math baseball subtraction blast.  
We also had a yoyo jar. Every class had to guess how many yo-yos are in the jar. If you get the correct answer then your class can keep the jar of yo-yos! It was a fun day!

World Math Day!

by Xiyan

It was another World Math Day!

World Math Day is all about celebrating math all around the world. At Heathcote we celebrated math by playing math games/puzzles. Also at Heathcote our principal walks to all the classrooms holding a jar which has a certain number of an object. In this case this math day at Heathcote we have a jar of smiley face yoyos. My clases guess was 45 which wasn’t even close! Turns out, it was 60! I guess I’ll wait another year.

You can celebrate math anyway you want. You can celebrate by reading about math, you can celebrate by doing math, you can celebrate even by just talking about math, you can even sing about math. There are so many ways you can celebrate math! They are all so fun! Go World Math Day!
