Electromagnets and Karate

Today, we learned about electromagnets. We used iron and stuff to test it with. We used 6 d-cell batteries to power it!

We also learned about the history of Karate. Mr. Carter had to review and memorize it if he wants to get his black belt (he is not one yet, but I am). He taught us the names of the people and where it started AND where the fights were. Did you know that Karate started in India? Well, it did! In 1946 it came to the United States of America by a soldier in the war. Today, many people take Karate or many other types of Martial Arts.

Mr. C's addition here: We spent some time as well talking about the nervous system. Ask your kids about it, and they should have lots to tell.
