Homeschool Journal 1/18/17

We read about Jacob getting Esau’s blessing, it is sad that they only have one blessing to give. I didn’t know/remember that Jacob means deceiver. We read about Muhammad’s death, Islam is “all about peace and being nice to everybody,” except for non Muslims, for that last part I read in-between the lines. I read some of Lamentations and I think the Israelites were sad because they disobeyed God, they got punished, and they were prisoners. The five rules for success that I got from Daniel are; don’t defile God, be nice to others, praise God, give the honor to God, and trust in God.

Lava is so cute he will melt you with his cuteness!!! Here is a picture of him. (I seriously want you all to be melted, I would suggest sitting down for this.) He just tried to press buttons on my computer and he logged me out and added in a few good things about himself too, (not really, he actually did a slash and logged me out.)

Homeschool Journal 1/17/17

Isn’t it crazy? Like father like son, Isaac pretended to not be married to his wife too!!! Isaac and Esau both got married at the age of 40, there is something about the number 40 in this family. Think of Moses! We learned about Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar was the king that went mad. The Israelites lived near a river in Babylon. page 110 Ezekiel would have seemed like a crazy man if I didn’t know that he was following God. Daniel was about 12 when he got captured and put in the king’s school. Did you know that people used to think Ester was a folk tale? That is crazy!!!

We learned about Muhammad, he started Islam. Sadly he believed satan’s lies.

Today Mom went on a walk with her friend Miss Sue, and I watched Adi, it was pretty fun. We made things with my clay. I made a box that looks like a little cupcake. It is cute, I am going to give it to my cousin, Sabra Joy, she is coming Friday.

I made a journal as Josiah, I even made it look old. I wrote about finding the Bible in the temple, and that I want to make free schools.

It snowed today!!! Only a few inches but that is better than none! We had to do a bit of together school and then I got to play in the snow, we made slushies, and jumped on the trampoline with snow on it, I started to build a snowman but I didn’t finish it.

Who Broke ISIS?

The US says ISIS is going broke. Counter-terrorism has been bombing their oil places and other things such as their oil tankers and such. Trying to make them go broke so they can’t pay the military. They believe they are succeeding, as ISIS has cut down the military’s pay by half. So maybe ISIS is to be defeated a bit easier in the near future.

Weekend Homeschool Journal

Sadly I had to do school this weekend. I made a concept map about my cat toy, Rolly the self rolling ball of string, it took forever to make. Than I had to write out the steps I would have to take to actually make it, it would have a motion sensors that would make the yarn be rolled out and then be rolled back up again, that would really get the cats attention!!! I also wrote an essay the name of it is Why I Should Take Notes And Obey My Dear Ol’ Ma it is a very long name from my mom’s words, I think she will find my essay very amusing.
