The Green Knight has won,
The one who captures the Prince,
Hip hip hooray! The Prince is alive!
And so are his knights.

So they set out to find,
The Green Knight behind,
And they found him dwindling,
In the Black Knight's divine.

They struck him down,
They brought him back,
To the King,
To the rack!

He is to be executed,
At dawn's first light,
Oh Green Knight!
What a sad sight!

Medieval Times Study Unit: Catapult

Since I only go to school part time I do the rest of my work here at home or in the community. Right now we are doing a Medieval Times Study Unit with lots of hands on activities that I like. The first thing I made was a catapult, a giant medieval slingshot. Here are pictures of what I built.







A catapult was used in medieval times for shooting dead humans, dead animals, and beehives over castle walls to infect and attack the castle. Did you know that the catapults were invented by the Greeks? The Greeks flung pots of mysterious fire with their catapults.

Bull's Eye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Today I went to see a Navy Ship, the HMCS Shawinigan. I got to go on it and get a picture of a person sitting in the captains chair with a vest and a hat. They have a 40mm rapid fire gun, and 250 calibre HMGs.

In the Navy, when you cross the Arctic, the youngest have to paint the bull's ring on the front on the boat in their underwear. They paint it blue in the Arctic and red in the Equator.

The ship is going to Owen Sound and then Goderich to help with the tornado clean up.

Wizard Banquet

I decided to make a wizard banquet. I got this idea from the book Wizard Craft. Each plate has the zodiac sign for me, my brother and my cousins.






We bought some glasses at a thrift store and clear plastic plates at a dollar store. You paint the bottom of the plate and the outside of the glasses so it doesn't touch your food and the paint stays on if you gently wipe/wash them after you are done. I used acrylic paint from a craft store.

Sims is a world, a world of wives, husbands, kids and teens, schools, jobs, restaurants, parks, gyms and families. This is something I like to do in my spare time. My first day playing Sims I got married and I am a Criminal. When you reach level 7 of the Criminal Career you learn to rob houses. This game is so exciting I hardly ever stop playing it.
