Tuesday March 10

On Tuesday Connor goes to Impact Home schooling Academy. Before we left for Mass, Connor read his book, did 5 Math pages, practiced guitar, and then we left for "school." Here is what Connor did at Impact:
Hi everyone! At Impact, I had drama first. We decided that instead of doing four different plays with four groups, we are going to do one play. That one play is called The Pilgrims Progress. Impact did it last year too, but now instead of three hours long, we will make it shorter. We then practiced our play. And that is all for drama!
At about 10:30am, I left for chemistry. Today in Chemistry we made invisible ink. I was in a group with Ezra and Zach. They are probably my best friends at Impact. Well, we found some of the best invisible ink formulas. I mixed 10ML of lemon juice,orange juice, milk,vinegar, and baking soda (it sort of foams up) and 20ML of water. When I dip a Q-tip in the formula and write with it on some paper, it is invisible when it dries and it can only be seen with the right light. That is all in Chemistry!
Writing is next. I handed in my homework and did some silent writing. Then we talked about what our homework is for next time. We then talked about writing mysteries.
In Social Studies, a veteran from World War II, named Bill Gaffney, spoke to our class about the war. The teacher gave us some pictures to color. Mr. Gaffney talked about the Battle of the Bulge, and how the Germans were really afraid of the Turkish because the Turkish would sneak in at night and slit the Germans' throats. It was really interesting. After Impact we went to Chinese class. I read my book for awhile and went to bed.
