TRUMP CLAIMS IRAN NOT LIVING UP TO NUCLEAR DEAL

by  • 

President of the United States Donald Trump said Friday, October 13 that Iran is not keeping the spirit or requirements of the deal made between them and the UN. He says that they might have a “nuclear breakout” in the future unless the deal is revised. He went on to say that the current pact is not good for the US or it’s border security. Other countries, especially the UK, France, Germany and Iran say that Iran is within the requirements and that the deal does not need to be revised. The deal outlines that the UN needs to give Iran food, clothing and money if they slow down their nuclear program.

We are taking a semester break to catch up. It is going to be awesome! I am very excited, if I finish my school I can even have Friday off! So, we have hit the semester point, how exciting! I can’t wait until the holidays too!

11/6/16

I did a math lesson. I practiced factoring and canceling. It is pretty fun. I finished at three when I was supposed to for once. All in all it is going to be a very good day. I divided up all I need to do into four days, and I am about to go clean my room and do my chores. I will probably read a book, and open my library. I am working on the catalog. I just learned that you are not supposed to add a ue to catalog when you are using it in the library kind. Interesting, but sad. I like catalogue personally, but it is underlined in red, even though it is a valid word, just not used in the U.S. as much.

The rest of this week did not go so well. I have not finished week eight or nine yet. It is mostly hard things left. It is going a lot slower and I got sick on Friday. (I was sick for a week after and I still have the cough.) I had a lot of fun at the bonfire worship night for youth group. I went with some of our neigbors that have kids and go to our church, N and her mom plus L and L down the street. It was incredible. It was at the Hi’s, and we played tag on the lawn.

This week I finished my alone reader about Japanese ports opening up. It was historical fiction. I liked it a lot. I can’t wait to start my next reader! I wonder if it will be historical fiction too, it’s my favorite genre.

We have hit the semester mark. Yay! I am a quarter of the way done with school for the year! Wow, if only the rest of the year would go this fast I would be done with the school year in no time! It is almost holiday time too, so much to look forward to.

During electives this week I finished an online course I was taking on how to make your headlines better. It was a very in-depth course and it even covered search engines and key words. It has majorly improved my headlines and I found the course interesting as well. For an example of my newly acquired skills see “Row Row Row your Boat… Democracy Down the Stream” an article I wrote about the possible new trend of diplomats row boating with each other while on business.

Book: Mr. Lemoncello’s Great Library Race by Chris Grabenstein

Reveiw

I think that Mr. Lemoncello’s Great Library Race is another amazing book by Chris Grabenstein. I plan on adding this to my personal shelves right next to the rest of the series. It is a three book series starting with Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library followed by Mr. Lemoncello’s Library Olimpics and now making it a terrific trio, Mr. Lemoncello’s Great Library Race! I hope a fourth one is coming soon! Mr. Lemoncello’s Great Library Race is about a third challenge for the team, this time all the players are coming from the board of trustees, and there may be a problem from the past to fix! As mysteries arise from the past about Mr. Lemoncello’s start as a gamemaker it may turn out that Mr. Lemoncello didn’t play fair. It is up to Kyle and friends to find the truth lurking behind the surface. But what they know may ruin Mr. Lemoncello, forever!

In Bible Jesus talked about wealth. In History we learned about the Agricultural Revolution and the Age of Enlightenment. In poems we read The Song of the Shirt by Thomas Hood. It was about a woman mending a shirt.

Row Row Row Your Boat… Diplomacy Down the Stream

by  • 

The British Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson was having talks with several European foreign ministers. They were held to discuss challenges the countries share as well as European security. Johnson went row boating on Sunday, October 15. He brought Ivo Sramek, the Czech Republic deputy foreign minister with him. They chose to rowboat in south England, at one of Chevening House’s lakes. I guess that’s the newest of possible diplomacy meeting trends.

We are back again. Already! It seems like the weekend only lasts 5 hours. And I did three math lessons this weekend. Oh well-they do say time flies when your having fun… (And not expecting/looking forward to something.)

In English I learned about different types of pronouns. Then I found and named the type of pronoun in a paragraph, explained why it was that type, and wrote a sentence using each type of pronoun. Then I added prefixes to words to make them a different type of word. I changed verbs into nouns, nouns into adjectives, and adjectives into nouns. I had to do two spelling days today.
