1066 and all that...!

As Daniel reminded me this morning, today is the 'birthday' of the Battle of Hastings in 1066, when William the Conqueror beat the army of King Harold. 

You can play the Battle for yourself in this online game, or view the Bayeux Tapestry, the most famous re-telling of the story.

Spore Creatures

In RE this term, the Juniors have been considering the origins of the world and life on earth. We have looked at stories of how the world was created according to different peoples, including the account in the book of Genesis. We have also looked at how Scientists think the planet evolved over millions of years.

We were interested to come across Spore Creature Creator (click the link to download a trial copy) which allows you to create lots of different creatures that can later be used in the 'Spore' simulation. It looks as if lots of other people also like to play at being the Creator!

According to Wikipedia
"By June 24, 2008, users had already uploaded over one million creatures to the site. During Electronic Arts' E3 2008 presentation on July 14, 2008, Wright humorously noted that fans had done God's work at 38% efficiency by creating the same number of currently known species on Earth, 1,589,000, in about 18 days, compared to God's 7 days. When Spore debuted on September 1, 2008, over 3 million creatures had been added to the Sporepedia via the Spore Creature Creator."
