Where the red Fern grows
The storm was finally going to end. They were sitting in the cold for hours, plus the team had no clue on where the pups were. That is when they heard a whoop and realized it was a search party looking for them. After a couple of whoops back and forth the search party found them, when they got there they made sure nobody was hurt except for Billy's Grandpa who had a pretty nasty sprained ankle. When the last person came he described how there were these pups that looked like ghosts because of how frozen they were. That made Billy cry because Billy thought that he said they were frozen solid but he just misunderstood. When they got the pups they went straight to the fire to thaw them out, as soon as they were all toasty they went back to the tree. After Billy's papa shot the coon the pups killed it. Then brought it back to the fire to skin it. Once they got to camp some people brought a box full of money to give to him because he had won! When his Grandpa saw that he went into tears and congratulated him.

The Muslims had almost taken over all of spain. But there was a Romeman king that had been Christianall of his life. He and this kingdom were all Christians and almost all of the other kingdoms hated them. He was assassinated, but there was no Evidence that the Muslems played apart. Two emperors that were from different cultures had a good relationship. Because one gave the other Emperor an white elephant, but the emperor didn't know it was useless so he made it work when they were traveling. When the other emperor saw that he was discussed.

A storm was stirring. And it was going to be a bad one. They got together with the judge, Billy's Grandpa, Billy's papa, Billy, Old Dan, and Little Ann. A few hours in the hunt the storm had gotten a whole lot worse. When the storm got too bad the adults wanted to head back, but he didn't because his dogs were missing. They searched and searched but couldn't find them, that is when he prayed and got an idea, asked his papa to shoot because Little Ann is gun shy. After they found Old dan they went looking for his Grandpa. When they found him they got a fire going and went to the tree where they found Old Dan, they killed 2 coon but the third one got away.

They went through the lake, the camp and then went up a tree. Then it was shot and then killed by the dogs. Finally once it was skinned they back hunting.

Where the red Fern grows
They were riding for hours until they decided to stop and spend the night. They were near a creek so they fed their horses and dogs. Once supper was over they finally decided to hit the hay, he couldn't sleep and that is when he Heard the sound of two owls and wear he lived that was bad luck. The next day they packed up and were ready to go, when they stopped his Grandpa and his papa broke into conversation. When the crew got to the competition they set up camp, Billy even made a bed under the Buggy. The next day there was a Beauty contest, Little Ann was entered and won with flying colors. A few hours after the Contest one of the judge's told them to draw a card and it was the day that they would hunt, when it came to Billy's turn he Drew the number 4. The next day while his Grandpa was shaving he went to grab his brush and saw a tiny hound hair, when Billy saw that, he bolted out of there.
S.S
Then after years of this the Islams started to be the top cultural. That was until many Muslims came from Africa, about 400 people. No one cared so they went back to make an Amy. When the goths found out they rush to them and started to fight. When the battle was over the goths lost and the Muslims took over where the goths thrived. The Muslims thought they destroyed all of the people that would fight and retaliate but there was still a small cult that hid in secret.
School day 2/22

CATCHING UP: The health journals need serious updating over the weekend. Please get on that. Morgin - your efforts were noted but not good enough. Tilden - you are way far behind. Morgin - you had plenty of time to catch up on reading and writing to your portfolio. Please write a one page explanation for why you did not complete your work last week.
Reading: chapter 15
Social Studies: the last 11 min of lecture 7
Notes: The main focus for this week is acting honorably - be kind, speak kindly while respecting those with more wisdom than you, and honor yourself by cleaning up after yourself, getting enough sleep, eating well, and be honest with the people you care about.
Note 2: Focus on honing your writing to be absolutely perfect. No silly sentences - they need to be helpful to the reader and easy to read. You've been improving with punctuation - keep it up. Keep helping each other. It's really coming along with each passing week. You'll be writing as as well as high schoolers very soon. 👍

Where the red Fern grows chapter 14
After the incident he felt horrible, like anyone would feel. One day a boy told Billy that his Grandpa had sent for him. The next day he went to his grandpa's store. His grandpa asked him about the incident, once he told his Grandpa they went around back and showed a magazine that said there was a coon competition for the best hunter and hounds. He was so excited that when he got home he gave a sack of candy to his sisters and when dinner was ready he asked his papa to come and broke into conversation. In the conversation he found out that his mother was pregnant and that his father would come with. Lastly the next day they went to the store, packed a buggy and drove off.
S.S
Islam thought that the christs and Jews were right at first but they drifted off. Once the Islams had enough people who believed they started to raid people. When they wanted to call their god they didn't use bells or other things, they thought that the human voice was the best and the speakers. One of their religions or their beliefs was for a whole month they wouldn't eat nor drink until the evening. They thought that the Christian insulted god because they had pictures of him so they had creative paintings that weren't of god. The Islam's were monotheisms, and the ones who were polytheisms, they fought them with information. Lastly in rome they had different taxes then others, for instance if you a Jew you would play more than a Christian but less than a Islam.

Where the red Fern grows chapter 12
His mother sent him to go fetch some cornmill, while he was getting cornmill with his grandfather some boys followed them and wanted to make a bet. The bet was for two dollars, it was that his pups couldn't catch the ghost coon. The next day and into the darkness they went to hunt the coon. After a while they found a trace, they followed till it went up a tree. But little Ann was not barking because she knew that something was off. When she found him they started chasing the coon till it went into the fields.
S.S
After a few years they decided it was best to destroy their bible. Once that was done they were allowed to have affairs with the Romans. So when the Bible was destroyed they all lived under one rule, by the bishop I believe. The bishop had a network of all the churches, even the ones in small towns. One person had come to Galethea with knowledge of Greece. He taught people and as a result other people taught people in churches, like schools.

The Romans moved the Goths so they wouldn't be any trouble between them. Then in return the Goths raided parts of Rome. Then a couple of years later they went to the heart of Rome to raid. After they took the princess hostage they thought they had leverage but they didn't. The princess got married to the goth king and which led to safe passage to build in Rome (in spain). There were 300,000 Goth and the king ruled over 3M Roman Spaniards.

Last chapter old Dan had gotten himself into a pickle quite a few times, but this time it was different, little Ann this time. While they were hunting for a few hours the pups started at a coon. It was snowy, slick and a coon could play some nasty and even fatal tricks. When little Ann tried jumping the lake it was not good enough. She had fallen in the lake and was holding on for dear life. When he found her she was still holding on. Once he got her by fishing her collar with a hook and got her home she was alright. The next day he got a nasty cold.

Where the red Fern grows chap 10
Little Ann was very small, you couldn't tell her from a coon if she didn't have floppy ears. On the other hand old Dan was average, but super muscley. Both of them would never leave his side even when he had to go sell his hides at his grandpa's store, he would try to get past them and he could do it, ever so often. There's a few times where there were a couple struggles with old Dan like when he got stuck in a tree and in a muskrat hole. Overall he loved hunting and he would mostly go every night.
S.S
This is about the division of the peninsula.
The three Barbarian tribes had gone to Spain. They first stayed together, but after a while they decided they would split. One of the tribes got the middle in the plains for there cattle, horses, and dogs. The second tribe went to the south part of Spain where they had ships and fish. Finally the third part had the city's. The third tribe was a little bit different about adapting, the third tribe and the people merged, they also had a price for everything ( I mean everything).
School day 2/10

He was so sore from chopping the tree that he had almost given up! That was until his grandpa came with a buggy with a helpful tip. He thought of making a scarecrow! Once they were done with the scarecrow they went to go have dinner. The next day while he was having breakfast his father said he kept hearing barking. So he raced to the tree, once he got there he saw that both of his pups were there keeping watch of the tree. He thought that the scarecrow was kind of useless as he chuckled. So he went to go get his ax and when he came back he was going to give that tree a piece of his mind. After about late noon or the evening he could not do it anymore, he had swung too much. With the only thing he could think of he asked God to give him strength he needed, there was a gust of wind! The next thing he knew the tree was on the ground and his pups had killed the coon. he went back to his house and showed his parents and his sisters the prize with the proudest smile any boy could ever have.
S.S
Romans called the Jermanics Barbarians, because the Romans thought it was an insult. The Jermanics came from the plains with tribes. Each tribe would have a king or a leader, and each tribe wanted power, not as in land but as in jewels and gold, and they took it by force. They would almost never slaughter their cows because they were a good source of milk and labor. The Romans always complained about the filthy Barbarians. When the barbarians invented soap the Romans wouldn't touch it, they would just rub water on their skin.
