Finished Early!! Spring Break!!!

Hello everyone! Another week's come and gone! This week I worked ahead, so I am currently writing this on Thursday! I get a long weekend and I can't wait till I finish school! Truth be told, I simply got bored today, since I finished school around noon, and wanting to be productive, I started the next day's school, knowing I could quit at anytime. But I just kept working! So now, after this, all I have to do is finish my reading for the week!

This week was pretty average, although I did have science class. Because of all the snow days earlier in the year, we had science on Wednesday, and we will have it again on Monday, and again next Wednesday! This time in lab, we made a lung model. We took a 2 liter soda bottle and cut it in half horizontally. Then, we took a Zip-lock bag and fit it over the larger opening of the bottle and taped it in place. Next, we inserted a balloon into the mouth of the bottle, and wrapped the mouth of the balloon around the bottle's. Now, whenever I squeeze the bag, the balloon gets crushed, and when I let go, it inflates! It was really fun to play with! We also watched a video from the point of view of a camera in a patient's throat, to see the vocal cords in action. I also had my science test today. I hope I did well!

This week I finished my religion book! Another topic done. Complete. Summer!!! I am so excited for summer, and every time I finish a subject, it brings me closer to no school and warm weather!

I started writing my research report on Cats in Ancient Egypt! My first step was the thesis statement. Here it is!

In Ancient times, Egyptians had a great love and respect for cats, 
elevating them to a sacred level, and worshiping cat gods and goddesses.”

Soon I will have the research report done and be ready to share it with all of you! Exciting, isn't it? Well, I had a pretty short week, so that's all I have to write about in this blog. Prepare for some pictures! Until next time, bye!
