Spending two hours of one paper is tiring and humiliating. Well that how long it took to do a single crossword. Talk about hard. The crossword puzzle was small but included a lot of tricky words. Ego, Vie, and Erin were some of the more exotic words today.
We did science again today to play catch up from yesterday. We learned about Democritus and some of his wise and smart thoughts, but we also learned about some of his wrong thoughts like for instance, he thinks that atoms are indestructible. Atoms are not indestructible because we use split atoms in atomic bombs and nuclear energy. One of Democritus’s true statements was that atoms are constantly moving all the time. Even though the water isn’t moving, the atoms sure are. We did another science experiment today and this had to do with food coloring moving in different temps. In hot it expands quickly but in cold it takes quite some time in order to finally turn the liquid green or red or some other color that you just put in. It was awesome seeing who the food coloring moved quicker in one than in the other. Today was one of those days that was long, but fun.
This is Spencer's mom: You'll notice this is a longer post. I specifically said Spencer had to go at least 150 words in this post.
ReplyDeleteHe did 211.
Ah, the old word count minimum. I do that every day in school too Spence :P (Mine is 450).
ReplyDeleteCrosswords are still hard for me, even in my old age, but I find that I still learn from them, which is great fun.
