Week 9 Term 2 Inquirer

We have been inquiring into words. In our online school, some grades have been studying about idioms. This was supposed to be the idiom for our Morning Meeting this week. The term "you really get my goat" comes from America. It means that a person says or does something that bothers another person. Goats, dogs and cats used to be put with race horses to calm them down. When the animals were removed then the horses got really mad. That is where the term comes from. We, as teachers, encourage the students to say nice things to each other.
