Arabian Nights

Arabian Nights is about a king whose brother’s wife left him, and he swore to kill everyone by marrying them and killing them the next day.

One day, a woman named Scheherazade wedded him, and every night she would tell him a story, and he would be too intrigued to kill her. Each night the story is left off at a cliff-hanger, so he would always want to know what happened next. All of the stories are well known, such as Aladdin and Alibaba.

Xtramath

We use Xtramath to practice math facts, and to get faster and more flexible with simple equations. I think it helps a lot because it has any simple multiplication problems that make you quicker with simple math. We also are supposed to do Xtramath every night.

Ashokan

The best part of the Ashokan trip was blacksmithing because most people never get to do it. Also we got to make things using burnt iron such as fire-pokers and plant hangers.  We got to do things people did in the medieval era, such as burn iron with white fire so we can hammer it to shape the iron.

The worst part of the Ashokan trip was the bunks, because they were messy, loud and people kept each other up at night.
