METER
We are learning about meter this time. K stands for kilometer. Kilo (K) means 1000, so kilometer means 1000 meters.
Definition of Meter
Meter is the international standard unit of length, approximately equivalent to 39.37 inches. It is as the distance traveled by light in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second.
The metric system was invented in France inn 1790 by the French National Assembly directed the Academy of Sciences of Paris, to standardize the units of measurement. A committeee were the mathematicians Jean Charles de Borda, Joseph-Louis Comte de Lagrange, Pierre-Simon Laplace, Gaspard Monge, and Marie Jean Antoine Nicholas Caritat, the Marquis de Condorcet (1743-1794). They used a decimal system and defined the meter to be one 10-millionths of the distance from the equator to the Earth's Pole (that is, the Earth's circumference would be equal to 40 million meters).
The word meter itself comes from the Greek word metron, which means measure. The centimeter was defined as one-hundredth of a meter; the kilometer was defined as 1000 meters.

What my parents want from me...
My friends, when we have homework about what my parents want from me, I am a little bit sad because that homework can be done when we sit down together with our parents, so we can hear what they wants from us. This time I can not do this homework because my parents are not here. They are in Singapore now because my dad is still in the hospital. I can not sit together with them to discuss about this homework. What I know while we were together before they go to Singapore, I know that they have something that they want from me such as:
1. They want me to study hard now so in the future they want me to be a successful child.
2. They want me to be kind to every one especially to all my friends so in the future I can be a helpful person.
3. They want me to respect to my teachers, my parents and elder people, so in the future I know how to respect others.
4. They want me to be a responsible child, now and forever.
5. They want me to have a faith, trust in Jesus and never forget to pray. In the future, they want me to serve God.
I will ask them again about these to make sure. But those five things always mention every time so I always remember them.
