No Maths Day

it's a tradition in our school to have something special at the end of every term. It's also a part of Fund raising to support our sponsored child in Rwanda. we had Book Week Dress Up Day, Jelly Baby Beans Day, Crazy Hair Day...

This time...we vote to decide what we're going to do end of this term..

We came up with some ideas...such as:

No Maths Day
Inside Out Day (wearing your clothes inside out)
PJ's Day
Spider Day (Spider is a type of drink made by mixing soft drink and ice-cream - still don't understand why they call it Spider here)
Different Socks Day (when you wear different types of socks in each foot)
No Talking day --> this is the most popular one for teachers hahahaha....* we all love this idea..especially kindy and year 6 teachers*

it's funny how each child came up with different opinion.
the most interesting is when it came to No Maths Day...

there were pros and cons for this day

Obviously most kids were excited since they do not have to have maths for that day

but..some came up with these opinions:
There will be impossible to have No Maths Day because:
1. If you line up..you're doing maths
2. If you look at the clock, you're doing maths
3. If you write a number, you're doing maths
4. If you're talking with your friends, you're doing maths (how fast or slow you're talking is also part of maths)
5. If we have circle time, we also do maths (circle, got it??)
6. even if we sit on the floor, we still do maths (we normally sit in a square with a masking tape on for each person's name)
8. if we walk, run or even skip, we count and do maths
7. even when we ask questions, such as: how long til recess/lunch/home time?....we're doing maths

so? how are we going to have No Maths Day if almost everything we do is Maths???

still..we haven't had the decision til today..while it's only 3 weeks to go til last week of school..*sigh*...it always happens when it comes to voting for decision... ;P
