Samuel, Kings & Chronicles

Let's keep learning about the other Books of History in the Old Testament.
We already learned about Joshua, Judges and Ruth.

Next up are the books of 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles and 2 Chronicles..
For the numbered books we say first or second, like First Samuel and Second Samuel.

These six books all talk about some prophets and very famous kings that ruled over Israel for some time.

The first person is Samuel. He was a prophet of the Lord, which means he talked to God, and got instructions from God that he told to other people.
Samuel also anointed Kings, which means he declared to all the people that God had chosen that person as King.

Samuel was a very faithful man, and anointed both King Saul and King David.

Asteroid belt

We just learned about the Atmosphere.

We've learned about asteroids and we've learned about the kuiper belt which is full of asteroids.

It turns out there is an even larger bunch of asteroids in our solar system
called the asteroid belt.

There are over a million asteroids in the asteroid belt!

French - His face is rough

We've now learned that This house is big is Cette maison est grande
The chair is small is La chaise est petit,
My drink is cold is Ma boisson est froide,
Your food is hot is Votre nourriture est chaud,
Their car is tall is Leur voiture est haut,
and Our table is short is Notre table est courte,
and Her hands are soft, is Ses mains sont douces.

To say His face is rough, you would say Son visage est rude.

His - Son - sounds like sawn /?/
face - visage - sounds like vee-zazh /?/
is - est - sounds like ay /?/
rough - rude - sounds like uh-oo-d /?/

All together it sounds like sawn vee-zazh ay uh-oo-d /?/

Earth's Gravity

When you drop a ball to the ground, what makes it fall?

Gravity! Our gravity comes from our planet Earth always pulling us back toward the ground.
Gravity is a type of acceleration, and the longer we fall toward the Earth the faster we'll go.

So if you fall from an airplane, you'll start out falling slow,
then you'll go faster and faster until you pull your parachute and slow yourself down.

If you drop a ball from the sky, it will fall slow at first, then faster and faster.

Earthworms

We just learned about Kangaroos.

How do earthworms move through the ground without feet or hands?
They use tiny claws that are like hairs called setae and then squish their bodies along to get through the ground.
