I didn’t do journals this week but by the time I’ve gotten around to it I lost my notes!!! So I don’t really have much to say about this week except I had a lot of trouble with bible, and mom didn’t read my LA so I didn’t do it. And I also got a A+++++ in science because mom forgot to take some questions off my sheet that she decided that I didn’t have to do, so I did them and got them right. I got 22/15 right. I hope that boosts my grade, because let’s just say science isn’t my best subject because it’s all reading, and I’m a visual learner. I just found some notes so here is more of what I learned.
Did you know that ostriches have claws? Isn’t that crazy? I didn’t know that they have claws, they are just folded up into the wings.
There were a bunch of Russian Christians a long time ago, it was . The Spartan men and boys trained for war almost all their lives, they had to train, take a test, and then serve for pretty much all of their lives. They would rather die than lose a battle. That is serious stuff. There is a famous ancient scholar named Plato, so does playing with Plato stimulate your mind? Who knows. But this reminded me of a guy a once knew named Famous. Seriously. He was nice, I played chess with him.
Did you know that Away in a Manger was originally a poem by Martin Luther? But upon further research that may not be proven true. Its first known printing was around 1883, near his 400th birthday. I also hasn’t been found anywhere with his other works, so it may just be a “marketing gimmic.” Information credited to Wikipedia.com
