We learned more about indians in history, I am ready to learn about something else. I can’t wait till summer!!! We went to a braces appointment today. We also went to the store and bank. We didn’t get much school done. I am getting better at logic.

Today it has rained a ton, we had lunch early in case the power went out, it didn’t, sadly. It is still raining now. Lava (our cat) has been in our laps during science. Because we are learning about him!!! Science is ok, but sort of scary. I didn’t get very much school done today.

In history we learned about the Mayans, they lived in Mexico. I thought they lived in America, but mom said they lived in Mexico. The Mayans are interesting, they built many great things. They had a horrible religion. They did human sacrifices!!! A friend of mine, (Tutu is her nickname) and I are doing a play of the diary of Anne Frank, it is really really sad. But it is also fun, I would like to be in a play someday.

We read about Paul being tried in Rome. Did you know that Paul was a Roman citizen? Paul had a lot of horrible experiences. We have moved into American countries. In science we are learning about the layers of rock.

I did more science without answering the questions these days. We did history and Bible too. We started a new book. It is called the Westing Game, it is a murder mystery and sort of interesting and confusing.

I fractured my collarbone on Saturday, so I am just doing science, history, poems, and Journal. Yesterday I went to two doctors, and didn’t do any school. We learned about Saul becoming Paul. Wouldn’t it be horrible to be named after king Saul? Who would do that to their child? In the past people valued education way more than now. We learned about scientific experiments.

Did you know that Count Dracula was an actual person? He was a count who killed many people. Dracula means dragon’s son. We started the new science book, it has a lot of experiments, and it is about the outdoors. I think it is ok.

We read some crazy poems. They are still tongue twisters. I finished math before 9:30, I got a A+ in my Quiz.
We read about Mansa Moosa, he was a king who went on a pilgrimage, he gave away so much gold he had to borrow money to get back and the price of gold in Egypt plummeted. H e built a mosk every Friday whereever he stopped the whole year and a half it took to go on the pilgrimage!!!!!!!!! There is mystery around Zimbabwe.
ISIS, in Mosul or No?
by Vwala •
ISIS is being pushed out of Mosul, they have been trying to get in even more lately. There was a possible use of chemical weapons on there part. There will be an investigation over the possibility. If so then there will be problems for ISIS with the humane society, and many countries. There has been a war over Mosul for a long long time but maybe this is the beginning of the end.

We read about David and Saul, Saul now doesn’t like David. David married Saul’s daughter. We read some tongue twisters in poems like peter piper, and how much wood would a wood chuck chuck. Today we almost finished our science book, we only have seven weeks left so the book we are about to start must be really really short.
In history we learned about Africa. There was a lot of gold and salt around Africa. I am glad we live in nowadays and not in a time long ago. Ghana was the center of gold trade but there wasn’t even any gold mines there, just in the countries around and they taxed people coming through the trade routes going through Ghana.
