Today is a HUGE day for us. We welcome to our school the International Division members of the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development to film us connecting with Lorraine Leo from Jackson School, Boston, USA and several of her students and also Rox Cosico from Claret School of Quezon City, Phillipines. Unfortunately, it is typhoon season in the Phillipines and their school has been closed for the past few days. It is hoped that tomorrow they might be back at school.

Year 7 will be working with Mrs Lorraine Leo and year 8s with Mr Rox Cosico and his class of year seven boys.

2. Grab the code and paste in your blog post, with an explanation of what you want your readers to do. At the end, state that you used polldaddy and link to its web address.
3. Complete the surveys of your other class members and ensure that they answer yours.
4. Check the results and key them into a spreadsheet
5. Graph the results, save as an image and insert back into the bottom of your blog post as well.
