by Grace WildeHome school is exciting with all the exciting subjects you get to study. The subjects I get to study are history, science, spanish, piano, trumpet, Kano (coding), language arts, math, religion, blogging, guitar, CCM, and my beta reader. But, of all the subjects, my favorite subject is History. I like reading about all types of History because it never ends. You always can learn about something new. History is like a giant storybook with different chapters. My favorite history topics to learn about are the saints, ancient Greece, and the pioneers. My favorite thing to learn about is the saints. I think it is good to learn about the saints because every saint was a normal person who had true love for the Lord. Learning about them gives you an example to follow to become a saint. I love to learn about ancient Greece. I love to learn about their mythology and their daily life. My favorite myth is the one about the quarrel over Athens. Two of the gods, Athena and Poseidon, gave helpful gifts to the city. The god that gave the better gift owned the city. Athena won with her gift of an olive tree, and the city of Athens was born. Pioneers are very fun to learn about. I think it is cool how they survived in the wilderness in cold and hot. I read the The Little House series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. But, did you know that the author is actually the girl, Laura, in the book? Laura Ingalls Wilder was a pioneer. The books are the accounts she created about her childhood as a pioneer. Why should we learn about history? We learn from history. We can make sure bad things in the past do not happen again. For example, I do not want us to discriminate against other people from different races like Hitler did to the Jews in World War II, and the Americans did to the Japanese in the Pacific War. Hopefully, this won’t happen again because we learned from history. Here are some great history and historical fiction books that you can get at the library.
Do not forget these are not the only History books there are! Go to the library and explore history!
