Conakry is in Guinea. Conakry doesn’t mean anything. 1,645,000 people live there, there’s lots of poverty there. It is on an island.

I learned about possessive and singular nouns. And how to know wether to add s, ‘s, or s’. It was a confusing until my mom helped me. It was easy after that.

Today Mom gave us a choice of doing a Journal today without notes to see if we could retain the knowledge. I chose to and Vella did not. In Bible we read about the punishment of the Gentiles. In Science we learned about compasses and maps. Our historic Read Aloud is about a missionary to Arica named Mary Slessor. Today in our reading she got Malaria and has to go back to Scotland to recuperate.
