In Geography....

In geography this week we learned more about african masks and tribes. We had a test as well, over afrcian countries, culture, and an essay about our socratic seminars. It was pretty easy I thought. Our afrcia mask is due thursday, and we have been learning about symbols and colors used to make the masks. Different colors mean different things, like white is purity and marriage, and purple means royalty. Most masks embody the spirit of an ancestor or resemble an animal and are used for rituals and celebrations.

There is not much new going on in my life, just the usual. Riding my horse a lot, hanging out with my friends, and celebrating easter. Easter is a religious holiday so my family and I are going to go to church. When I was little, we used to wake up in the morning, search for easter eggs (that are brought by the easter bunny) and then go to church. In the easter eggs there was a lot of sweet candy and sometimes even money.
