History Of Benghazi

The history of Benghazi
During December in 1941 the people that lived on Benghazi went to Italy and 188 people from Benghazi died.
One year later on 16th of August the Nino Bixio was transporting to Benghazi the Allies of Libya. After the day at Benghazi the Nino Bixio was attacked by the british submarine. It did not sink but was towed in Southern Greece where the soldiers were buried.The US mission in Benghazi, Libya, is attacked and burned. An attack later that night involves mortar and rocket fire against a US diplomatic annex in the city.


In 1942 when the Nino Bixio was attacked, to feed the prisoners at war they would use an empty jam or meat can to cook. They would put the food on some bricks, and fuelled with anything that would burn. They used tin stoves made from tins that were flattened out. These were first seen in Northern Italian camps. Some people say that this was better than the old brick fireplace.Berenik on a small natural harbor on the gulf of Sidra, Benghazi was refounded in the Middle Ages.  Benghazi is placed and named after a place in Libya.

Reflection About Maths

Reflection about Maths

1. What Types Of Questions Did You Find Easy?
I found the multiplication questions easy, because i could just think in my head and already have the answer, but sometime I use the paper to make sure it is right.

2.  What types of question did you find challenging?
I found the times tables hard because i have to use different times table, because for explape I didn't know my 20 times table so I would have to find a times table that would help solve my answer for my question. And another question I found hard was, division because i don't really know my division but i'll try to divide and hopefully i'll get it right. 

3. What do You think you need to improve on with your maths?
I want to improve my divides and higher times table, i need to learn these because i want to give 100 percent in my work. and when i see a question that have division or higher times table i will already know the answer and answer the question straight away.

Expectations At The Pools

What We Should Do At The Pools



  1. Firstly what we should do is, if there is a teacher talking then you should be listening otherwise you don't know what todo when you get in the pool.
  2. Secondly when you get in the pool then you should be listening for the next instruction.
  3. Thirdly when you are at the pools you should be walking because there are slippery floors and you could fall if you run.
  4. While swimming at the pools you need to be quiet so you can hear when the person is talking.
  5. There will also be people there which be loud and distracting so you'll have to be listening your hardest there.
