Today I got a really late start. Mom went to the doctor. Mom and Reed where not feeling good today.
I got a C in spelling. That is bad. I think I made a mistake, I’m a terrible speller, sometimes I can’t even spell off, or of, or when. Sorry for the mistake. Pride comes before a fall, I think that was my pride and this C is my fall. Oops well I think I’ll learn something from this. Don’t be prideful.
We learned about Pyongyang today in 10/40, it was fun, Pyongyang is in North Korea, it’s name means “peaceful ocean.”It is the capital of North Korea and has a population of 3,346,000 people with poor living standards. I also learned that South Korea’s longest river is the Naktong river,it is 325 miles long. People actually don’t live on the smaller islands in South Korea most of the time. Chenju island is the biggest island. Halla-san is the tallest mountain in South Korea, it is 6,398 feet tall and it’s on Chenju island. I labeled some points of interest on a map of Korea.
We had to read a weird poem about hollyhocks, at least it was short.
Science was about how muscles move. It was really fun and cool! We learned about how they actually contract and relax, they actually do that by having cells fit into each other.

In school today I didn’t have much to do, I did a bit of reading (about indians) and it was fun but took a long time. It was mostly about they’re homes and how it’s changed from tippis to log houses.
In current events I had to write my report and I am going to type that up after I finish this journal. My report was about china changing how much the yuan (they’re currency) is worth.

Today was the second day of school, and I of course had spelling first again today, and I only missed 1 today giving me a A/96 percent and my mom made me find out the persentage in my head with a lot of help from her. Then I did my binder work, today I had to read through a couple of sentences, and rewrote a different couple of sentences using more descriptive adjectives. Afterwards we did history and read more about the 10/40 window and about “Why committed Christians should focus on the 10/40 window.” And so on and so on, a whole chapter about it! Then we where suppost to read bible but we had already read it with our dad/prinsible, witch was fun!!! After that I did math, and worked more on the ten key number system, and you’ll never geuse what I found out, if I click on it I can change my icon to a bunch of different stuff, and it’s realy cool + I figerd it out all by my self. Later I had a lot of history B the stuff I do by myself and I had to read more about China and communisim the write three things I learned about communism. And I also did more research about the thing I’m writing about. After that I think I did binder work and didn’t get much done. Then we had lunch, and nothing unusual happened exept for I had cake for dessert. Afterwards we did science and learned about all the systems like the resputory, and what they do for your body, and the 3 questions we had about it were pretty easy and fun, I thought question 6 was cool and realy made you think.
