The United States of America presidential election took place Tuesday and the votes finally counted in the morning showed that Donald Trump defeated his rival Hillary Clinton. He got 279 of the office clinching 270. Hillary Clinton, wife of former president Bill Clinton got 228.
Today we went out in the morning so we did not start school until the afternoon. We did not finish. We had two days of together stuff and a Science Experiment. I had a writing assignment and spelling.
Today we did not do together stuff. We would do science but we did not have any today. Math was about identities and false equations. Mom gave me and Vella’s each other’s spelling tests.
Today is election day. In history we learned about the Aryans. They fleed Russia and settled in India. Buddha was an Aryan. We read eight poems. They were mostly about mice. We learned about the supposed natural formation of protienoids and amino acids. Oxygen is poisonous to amino acids. We had to pick a woman leader off a list of woman from the Bible, they were all supposed to be leaders but only one was. It was Esther. Ester was a Queen while the Jews were in exile. She was a Jew and there was a plot to kill every single one and she helped her uncle save them.
We read the last chapter of 1 Corinthians today. In The Children’s Bible Field Guide we read about the Judges. There were four major Judges. Judges translates to rulers. Mom was sick so we aren’t reading history, poems or science today.
Of the elephants that I mentioned yesterday of 40 only 2 survived. Nothing was really new in history it was what we learned yesterday but in another book. We read three poems about little fictional people like goblins, dwarfs and leprechauns. 120 mph is how fast someone falls. We learned about robots in Cool Stuff 2.0
5,000 Iraqi fighters have joined the push to take Mosul, the last ISIS stronghold in Iraq. The soldiers now number 15,000.
In History we learned about the Punic Wars. They lasted over 100 years. It was wars between Rome and Carthage. In the end the Carthaginian general, Hannibal, decided to attack with elephants on land while the sea stalemate was going on. That gave the Roman a chance to make a push on the sea and attack Carthage while Hannibal ran away and committed suicide. We read seven poems about things like grasshoppers. Our science experiment was really boring we just put some slides in water.
We read eight poems. In History we learned about Roman gladiators. In Science we learned about DNA. The possibility of it forming without intervention is 1 to 1,201,000 followed by 10,387 zeros.
