Today we revised some basic HTML. In science class, I learned that we have 2 quizzes coming up next week: one about safety and the other about the elements. It shouldn't be too hard, atleast that's what Mr. Schweitzer said.
English class was very interesting today. We learned about Shakespeare's times and how society functioned then. My english teacher, Mr.Vidrih, gave us an assignment where he told us the background information to Shakespears' book Richard the III. Richard was a duke who wanted the throne. His father died, and according to the morals of the time, the throne goes to his eldest brother, Edward. Edward is now dying, and when he passes, the throne belongs to the 2nd eldest brother, George. But Richard wants the throne. And thus, his brothers are obstacles from him obtaining the throne. But these are not the only obstacles of King Richard. King Edward has is married to Queen Elizabeth, who has 2 brothers, and 2 grown sons from previous marriage.There is more, but let's just leave it at that. Our assignment was to strategical create a plan to eliminate all other contenders of the throne so that Richard ends up becoming King. We must present our plan to the class on Monday, and Mr.Vidrih will compare our plans to the play of Richard the III. Me and my group spent a lot of time thinking of a plan, but sometimes we have to go to the basics and draw a simple diagram. After drawing a family tree, we easily constructed our plan.
