Dear Mia,
How are you? Our new term started two weeks ago. This year I have five classes every weekday and one test every month.
My older sister just went to college, so our room is quiet now. I miss her, but she comes home on weekends.
You said you write a weekly diary. I want to try that, too. Please send me a photo of your school.
Yours,
Ruby
Long ago, people had no clocks. They looked at the moon to measure time. The moon changes its shape in about thirty days, and this period became our month.
People also watched the sun. The Earth goes around the sun in about 365 days, and that is the length of a year.
In the past, farmers used these ideas to plan their work. Today we still use them every day.
Students in three grades answered a question about the Internet.
| Grade | Weekdays | Weekends |
|---|---|---|
| Grade 7 | 40 minutes | 90 minutes |
| Grade 8 | 55 minutes | 120 minutes |
| Grade 9 | 30 minutes | 60 minutes |
Teachers say students in Grade 9 spend less time online because of the big test in May.
