Organization is the key





More than 2000 years ago the firs atom theory see the light, a Greek teacher named Leucippus made an observation to this students he said, if you see the beach the sand look continues and smooth like the ocean, but if you see the sand closely the sand was made up of tiny, indivisible grains, in that time the big question was What is the world made of?.

Democritus one student of Leucippus made a theory, this theory is about the world is made up of by tiny particles he gave the name of Atomos to these particles, which in geek means “cannot be cut”.
The Greek philosopher Aristoteles create a Theory about the world was made by a combination of four elements Fire, Water, Air, Earth, he popularized this theory, he said everything in the world is a combination of these four elements but any element can be transformed or changed into another.
In 1969 the first scientific to discover an element by an accident was Henning Brand in the way to convert one element to other, he tried to combine several elements whit humans urine, and he discovered a substance who glows in the dark he was discover the Phosphorus which means “bringer of light” in Greek.
Scheele and Priestley about 100 years after Brand discovered Phosphorous they do experiments who helped to create the periodic table, they discovered a new kind of air who was capable to maintain a fire burning using only the new air, they was discover the Oxygen.

Antoine Lavoisier the father of the modern chemistry he listed 33 elements to the periodic table and he rediscover the Oxygen and it was given its name.

Humphry Davy the electricity was ne new discover in his time but he invented a new form of energy the portable energy or Batteries, he saw the potassium in a potato is a conductor and he invent a battery using a potato to generate energy because the potassium is a light metal.

The Russian scientific Dmitry Mendeleev he invented a card game called Patience looking a ways how to order all the elements in a perfect order he needed do that in same time he working explaining how make cheese because he was a cheese maker too, with the game Patience he played with cars with the name of the elements, one day when he traveled in a train he slept and when he awoke he puts the cards in an specific order like he saw in a dream and this is the origin of the order of the periodic table.

Using the new climate the people started domesticating animals and that mark the way to the modern farmers, she was wonder with her travel and develop a tremendous respect for our ancestors because they learned how to adapt quickly to the different environments and how to change and manipulate the environment.       

An interview with the Grimm brothers



 the Grimm brothers



The brothers Grimm are famous for their collections of folktales and fairy tales, such as “Little Red Riding Hood” and “Sleeping Beauty” Imagine Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm are alive today and they being interviewed on a TV show.

People around the country call to the TV show to made their own question that is a summary about this interview.

In that time the Grimm brother were writing a German dictionary they said they never think to do that kind of work, they left their jobs as professors at Gottingen University in 1837 because they were disagree with the king. They need find a new job quickly, so they write the German Dictionary.

The problem whit the king was the kings discard all the laws that protect people’s rights, and he ignored a petition protest.   

They took the work to write the German dictionary as a temporal job, only for earned money but that job was bigger than they thought; German is an extensive language and they need to include the meaning of each word and the source of each word, but the real problem was the dialects who people speak around Germany.  

The first call is from Sacramento California, Ryan a fourth-grade student and the question was about who the Grimm brother gets the ideas for their fairy tales, they answered to Ryan they said that stories have been hundreds of years. They have been handed down. For example a mother tells the story to her children, and the children tell it to their children, and so on, for example they spend a lot of time collecting folktales around Europe, and they rewrite those stories in their own style using their own ideas to represent right and wrong and about what’s good and what’s bad. 

Samantha from Miami made a question about “Little Red Riding Hood” how they got the idea or only dreamed up, because they said they collected folktales and fairy tales, she want to know about the difference between the two class of stories.

They answered that question explaining the differences about the two classes of stories, they said a folktale is a story take place in a specific area and the hero may be a real person or a historical figure, and the fairy tale take place in a fantasy world all characters and events come from imagination-just like dreams.

Vida form Portland Oregon want to know if they considered collect stories from Egypt or China.

They said they started collecting stories close to their home Germany. They looked for stories from other part of Europe too, that was a big job! When they finish the dictionary, perhaps look fir stories outside Europe.

All of these people leave behind their families and belongings, because they want find better thinks and opportunities.
During 1800s and the early 1900s, a huge wave of people arrived in the United States. Between 1892 and 1920, about 23 million people from Europe landed in New York at Ellis Island and they became the process of being admitted in USA, many of these people didn’t speak English in those days and lost their names because they don’t understand or say other thing when the authorities ask for their names and last names.

Many people go to USA to start a new life, they need to apply for permissions to stay in USA, but the American dream it is alive and any person to go to USA want to say some day, today I am American.

In western Kansas the Exodusters found parcel of land for placing their claims, now the new strugglers were about to begin, but the new pioneers learned how to live in harmony and made Kansas into their new home.
Build houses was the first task but the wood was very scarce, but they decided build with brick of sod, “sodies” was the name of their homes.
Some days on the plains were really fine, when all of life was in harmony, but then came the times of drought, of flood, of blizzards, and sweeping prairie fires.
And worse of all, perhaps, were the plagues of grasshoppers eating up the plain.
In the towns were general stores and such, where pioneers could stock up on supplies. Some exodusters chose to move on. Some even returned to the south they knew, of all the towns these pioneers built, only Nicodemus remains today.
On Nicodemus the people stayed, worked hard, and prospered at times.
Farther returns from work and children return from school as mother prepares a meal made from the fruits of their harvest.
The taste of freedom is ever so sweet.
This fever that had brought them west was fever that healed a broken people. Of a dream has led the way to a new life, of the free smile of a man who owns land back in the days of the exodusters.
