A educated person is a happy person

Luther Map

The picture above is called the Luther Map. I will put more history pictures.

The picture above the Luther Map is The Hindu goddess Kali. She killed demons by sipping the blood that their necks drooped because every time their necks drooped blood onto the ground, another would pop up.

The reason why I called this, An Educated Person Is a Happy Person is because we all learned something today about the Hindu religion and the Luther map. ENJOY!

O_o (I love History!)

Metamorphosis

Butterflies, bees, and other insects go through complete metamorphosis. Metamorphosis is a stage where insects  such as the butterfly, start from an egg, to a caterpillar, or larvae, to a chrysalis, or cocoon, and finally able to sprout its wings and is able to form into a beautiful butterfly. Other insects such as the dragonfly go through incomplete metamorphosis. Incomplete metamorphosis is when the stage is incomplete. The dragonfly starts off as an egg, then to a nymph which lives under water with tiny wings, sheds its skin and has bigger wings. After a few times of shedding its skin, the nymph turns into a dragonfly. Now, if you can think of a reason why an insect shouldn’t go through incomplete metamorphosis, please tell me and I will PROVE YOU WRONG!!!

Mighty Oak

Grey clouds were dancing above Shawna. Shawna is walking to an oak tree by the stream that her father owned. The dry oak tree leaves seemed to whisper as she walked by them, hands in her pockets.

She heard footsteps behind her. She walked faster. The footsteps got faster.

“What do you want?” she said, looking up at a tall, scrawny boy.

He had ginger, brownish hair that partly covered his eyes, which were ice-cold blue.

“Why are you following me?” she asked timidly, looking into his eyes.

“I need help, my car broke down,” he said in a voice that kind of sounded like a police siren.

“Okay, sure. I’ll try and help.” she said.

His small lips almost turned to a smile. “Follow me,” he said. “Hi, my name is Nick. My friends call me BC for some reason.” It started to drizzle, and he pulled an umbrella out from the backpack he had. “Here, take the umbrella, I’m fine.” Nick said.

“Thanks. -Do you have a– no I’ll go get mine,” Shawna dashed into her house and came out the next minute with her skateboard.

“My car didn’t crash, it just broke down and I just filled up the tank,” Nick screamed through the rain as it started to hail.

Just then a piece of hail about the size of a golf ball came out of the sky and hit Nick on the head.

“Nick! Nick! Are you okay??” Shawna screamed. “Nick? Nick??”

Will Nick be okay? Will he be alive? We will find out next time……….

I am sorry, I like to keep you guessing. But it’s your call, you respond to this post and tell me what you think. Will he live or survive?

Nature Owls Part=1

A moonlight night, peeling the walls on the cave when suddenly, a bird shaped shadow blocked the light from all of its followers. Then a horrible screeching noise pierced the ears of all of the animals in the woods. EEEEECH! EECH! The owl ahead screeched looking for food to feast on. Its chestnut colored feathers and burnt orange beak glimmered in the sky as it faded into the foggy clouds. A summer aroma seemed to bounce off of each and every leaf on the forest green leaves.

FWEEEWW!! The owl has found its supper. A small snow colored mouse lept from a trap that almost got its tail. The owl sped like a bullet toward the mouse. And finally…. CRACK!! The owl breaks the mouces neck and the owl flies away with the mouse dangling from its beak. CRACKLE!! The owl lands in his nest finding a mother and five baby birds. It was practically a feast.

The next day, the father owl goes out for his next task, to greet the worms. (By greet, I mean eat.) The hill had lept a shadow over their prairie. The light peels the eyelids of animals, waking them slowly but surely. BABT! The owl finds the worm and lands on the damp, warm ground. The creek babbling in the distance. The owl looks up with the worm in its mouth and flies off, landing in its nest and feeding his young. And falling asleep after a long night of restless sleep…

 

SEE YOU IN PART 2…

The “Big” Jump (first published piece)

Shll-BANG! “Wow! That is some slippery ice!” I said shocked. I remember the thick white fog that rolled across the ice skating stadium floor. Well, about fifteen minutes of pure torture, I stopped my skates, closed my eyes, poked myself very hard to just get out there and skate. So I did, it just took me forever.

So after I got a hold of it, I went to the middle of the rink, which led to a crack, which led to a ramp so tiny you could hardly see it. The next thing you know, I was about a foot in the air, eyes wide, heart thumping, face pale, and legs about another foot apart. When I landed, I felt as stiff as a rock. I could feel the cool breeze move around me and I heard well, the majority of the skates stop. Also when I landed, I felt like a little puppy shaking because it was going to the vet to get it’s shots. When I jumped up, it felt like it was playing in slow motion.

When I got home, I told my easily amused grandma and my very UN easily amused cousin. And they were shocked! Kind of…
