We have finished off the second quarter with a bang. We have just finished a major writing and a major history project. We read some more Bronze Bow, and the boys ran the mile in P.E. In bible, we learned about how John the Baptist was willing to give up his life to prepare the way for God, and that it was okay to be different, as long as you are standing up for the right thing. Meh has created a new game, which can be found at http://www.khanacademy.org/cs/meteor-mania-30-firepower/1340909228. The riddle for the week is
A king decided to let a prisoner try to escape the prison with his life. The
king placed 2 marbles in a jar that was glued to a table. One of the marbles was
supposed to be black, and one was supposed to be blue. If the prisoner could
pick the blue marble, he would escape the prison with his life. If he picked the
black marble, he would be executed. However, the king was very mean, and he
wickedly placed 2 black marbles in the jars and no blue marbles. The prisoner
witnessed the king only putting 2 black marbles in the jars. If the jar was not
see-through and the jar was glued to the table and that the prisoner was mute so
he could not say anything, how did he escape with his life?
