Seeker of Knowledge!

This week we will read,Seeker of Knowledge: The Man Who Deciphered Egyptian Hieroglyphs

To a child, the future is a magnificent dream. For Jean-Francois Champollion, the dream was to sail up the Nile in Egypt and uncover the secrets of the past. In 1802, when Champollion was eleven years old, he vowed to be the first person to read Egypt's ancient hieroglyphs. He faced great challenges over the next twenty years as he searched for the elusive key to the mysterious writing -- and the fulfillment of his dreams.

Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King was just a man
for justice and peace he would stand

All he wished
Is for whites and blacks
to be equal when we finished

He had a non-violent protest
To put the people to a special test

So, to racial injustice, to inequality,
He raised a fist of peace
and with equal rights,
America would find release.

He knew his people were very bright,
he just had to lead them to the light.

Because Martin Luther King had a Dream
so no one would have to scream
for there wouldn't be a dilemma
like Birmingham or Selma.

He once said that he had a dream
and that one day it will come true.
But it will only be a dream
until there is change in me and you.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year Wish
My Happy New Year wish for you
Is for your best year yet,
A year where life is peaceful,
And what you want, you get.
A year in which you cherish
The past year’s memories,
And live your life each new day,
Full of bright expectancies.
I wish for you a holiday
With happiness galore;
And when it’s done, I wish you
Happy New Year, and many more.
By Joanna Fuchs
