My teacher surprised me today.... the next section in our social studies book is going to be on archaeology! We're looking at how the archaeologists find the stuff they do, why they find it, and more! Exciting!
I'm also entering a contest with my school. Anybody heard of the VFW post? They are holding a writing contest called Patriot's Pen. We have to submit (our teachers will) a 300-400 word typewritten essay with the subject of "Why Are You Proud of Your Country?". I finished writing it today, and I'm typing tomorrow and next week. The prize, if you make it to Nationals and win, is 10,000 dollars in US Savings Bonds!!! You're probably asking yourself, what does this have to do with archaeology? If I were to win the grand prize, it would make my chances of becoming an archaeologist in Scotland higher!! Eeeeeep!!
