For history I learned about the master warriors of the Middle Ages. The Mongols!
They took over much of Asia.
Here is a video of what they conquered.
Their leader was Genghis Khan. Fun Fact, The Mongols tried to conquer Japan, but a typhoon stopped them! The Japanese thought that their gods had saved them!
Here is one of my FAVORITE school videos.

Plate tectonics change the earth’s surface. Dry lands used to be seas. Mountains used to be deserts or oceans. Volcanos are formed from plate tectonics boundaries. When magma comes to the surface, it makes a volcano. When magma comes to the surface, it becomes lava. The earth is changed with these volcanoes.

Collections are fun to keep. People collect lots of things. Some things cost money. But collecting rocks is absolutely free! All you have to do is start by keeping your eyes open when you are in a new place. If you want rocks from faraway places, you can trade with people around the world. It’s important to have records. The records you should have are where you got it, the date, and what type of rock you think it is. Now all you have to do is find a rock and start your collection!

Soil is more than pieces of rock. Soil has things that used to be living. The organic soil has dead bugs and dead leaves. Inorganic means never alive. The inorganic soil has mud, clay, and rocks. Dead things are recycled. That means rich soil and more living things. This is an amazing way earth recycles.
This is just to say but this was by far my favorite one to make!!!!!

I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
by Cecil Frances Alexander
All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The lord god made them all.Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colors,
He made their little wings.
is a meadow
after a snowfall
that a poem
hopes to cross
When I was down beside the sea
A wooden spade they gave to me
To dig the sandy shore.
My holes were empty like a cup.
In every hole the sea came up
Till it could come no more.
This year for Language Arts, I am learning a poem every week or two.
The fog comes
on little cat feet.It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.
I have been learning to type using Typing.com. This week, we played games on KidzType. Mom was pressuring me to type faster and faster!
Typing is hard, but practicing with games makes it fun!
