    Read about George Orwell on page 477.

     Check vocabulary before reading.

    As you read, see if you find any evidence of crimestop, black-white or doublethink in modern society.

The moral of this book is, "Don't let it happen. It depends on you"

     Friday, 5/1/2020

    Read "The Bible--Independent of All Other Books", pages 358-359.

    The Greek classics studied in this unit helped to point the world to the Bible. The Greek writers were usually moral and their writings were often  based upon biblical principals, but they did not know the one true God. (Their light of knowledge was just a "flickering light.") Only the Bible has stood the test of truth for all ages and truly points man to God.

    AMERICAN LITERATURE

    Monday, 4/27/2020 

    UNIT 10 DEVOTIONAL WRITINGS

    Sermons and devotional verse are an important part of American Literature because they can be appreciated not only for their artistic merit but also for their spiritual value. The sermons span three hundred years--from colonial America to the twentieth century. The styles vary greatly but the truth of God's Word is the same.


    Read about Jonathan Edwards on page 278. Read "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,"  pp. 271-278.

    UNIT 8: THE 20TH CENTURY

     "The Hidden Years at Nazareth," G. Campbell Morgan, pp. 447-449

     The Devotional Works (p. 447) emphasize the fact that although Christianity's influence in the 20th century is not what it was in the Victorian Era, Christian writers where still encouraging Christians. The major writers were Morgan, Jowett, Chambers and Carmichael.

    Read about on page 449, his emphasis on "Truth, Clarity and Passion" in his sermons is clearly illustrated in the passage you will read today (pp. 447-449).

     Answer the question on page 449.

      Read about Oswald Chambers (p. 451). His daily devotional booklet has become a Christian classic. In a world that promotes acquiring wealth as a sole reason for work, Chambers comments focus on the true reason for work: to glorify God. 

     Answer the question on page 451,  

       Read about Amy Carmichael on page 453.

    When the British took over India from the East India Company in 1558, they tried to respect the religious customs. However, two of the practices, the sacrifice of children to the river gods and suttss ( the practice of burning the widow alive on her husband's  dead body, were quickly outlawed.

     This poem calls into question the loyalty and fervency of Christians who do not exhibit dedication in following Christ. Notice that each stanza of the poem begins and ends with a question.

    WEDNESDAY, April 22, 2020

    Fiction writers of the modern era exhibit tendencies toward experimentation, indeterminacy of meaning and cynicism. The positive influence of writers such as C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien and G. K. Chesterton helped tone down the others.

    Before reading "The Lagoon," page through the selection and read the vocabulary at the bottom of the pages. Then read the selection. Answer questions 1-4 on page 462.

     

    FRIDAY, April 24, 2020

    PHYSICAL SCIENCE 

    Daniel

    Answers to questions you sent to me.

    3. The electromagnetic force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between objects. Thus if the distance is multiplied by 3, THE FORCE IS DIVIDED BY      9.  Since the poles are opposite, IT IS AN ATTRACTIVE FORCE. 

    4. The electromagnetic force is directly proportional to the charge. When the first charge is doubled, the force is doubled. Since the second charge is left the same,              there is no change with respect to that charge. The force varies inversely with the square of the distance between objects. Thus, if the distance is divided by 2, the          force is multiplied by 4. The total change, then. is 2 x 4 = 8. 

        THE NEW FORCE IS 8 TIMES STRONGER THAN THE OLD ONE.

    12.CONVENTIONAL CURRENT ASSUMES THAT ELECTRICITY IS THE FLOW OF POSITIVE CHARGES. We know, however, that electricity is the flow of electrons,         which are negative.  

    Andrew, I did not receive anything from you, so I assume you had them all right.

     Your assignment for today is to answer questions 1, a-f give definition; 5, 7, 8, and 18,  Without using notes or book, Place you papers with the rest of  your things to be turned in.

     We will not have anymore Physical Science assignments assigned this year.

    I hope that you and your families stay well and that we will all be together very soon.
