The election is over and the winner is . . . all of us because we live in a country where we can have elections to choose our leaders with no wars or violence!

We did talk about the election some today. We also worked on finding the area of triangles and what to do when part of a rectangle gets cut out and we need to find the area of the new shape. We also took our science test. We had an interesting grouping of scores. We had a good number of A+'s and A's, then we jumped down into the B's and C's. In geo we finished up the history and culture of Europe. Not easy to cram that in to 2 days. So we didn't. We spent several more days on it, but it was worth it. OK, I couldn't stop talking about the crusades and the black death and WWI and WWII.
