Today is the last day of January, so happy January!!! We read poems about mailmen, songs, and ice cream trucks. There are too many poems in the world, I like my own but most of other peoples don’t make sense. We read about Joseph in Bible. We read about the fall of the Byzantine Empire in history. In science we learned about waves and wave lengths.

In Bible we read the genealogy from Esau. In The Children’s Bible Field Guide we learned about how life was in Judea in Jesus’s time. In History we read about the Franks and how they adopted Roman customs and basically were like the Roman settlers they conquered. We read four poems about random things. In Science we learned about temperature and heat. The heat of something is dependent the temperature of it and how much there is. That is why it is harder to heat or cool a larger body of something.

We read about Esau, and his wives and children. Esau and Jacob couldn’t live together because they had too many animals. They have a lot of crazy hard to pronounce names. There were a lot of chiefs that came from Esau. We also learned about Jesus and how Israel was when Jesus was alive. Jesus probably spoke Hebrew, Arimaic, and Greek! Wow that’s a lot!!! Most houses in Judea had one story houses, they only had meat on holidays. Everyone wore tunics.

Today we learned about Japan, and more about Easter Islands. We read a lot a bout King Arthur, we read it for forever. That must of been the longest chapter we have ever read!!! I really like King Arthur but this chapter took lie and hour to read and even I was like, can it be ovvvver yet!!!!!!!!!! We read about this guy who was nice but a very good fighter.
We read about microscopes in science. We also learned about Atlis, and weather balloons, they have small weather stations on them, they use them to forecast weather, (hence the name.) They have and use them all over the world, after they go up so many feet the balloon bursts and it falls back to earth. That’s how they get them, back to earth. We wondered if someone has ever been hit on the head by a small weather station when they were falling back to earth. that is funny to think about,it wouldn’t be funny if they got hurt but it is still funny to think about.
