Summary of Events to July 17, 2014
10 years ago in a Peace agreement Israel removed all Israeli citizens from Gaza in order to create a two state agreement. Gaza is not occupied. They were left with a growing commerce and the means to create a great state. The USA has been funding the building of this area and the result is the current tunnel system and armory they have collected. They did not honor any cease fire they have been attacking and demanding more and more every year including this year which resulted in Israel releasing 1000 terrorist back to them only to have 3 teen-agers (one who is an American Citizen) murder and thrown into shallow unmarked graves while the Israeli people looked for them for 3 weeks... That is the current situation is a nutshell. The campaign is being called Operation Protective Edge

![]() Introduction to Geography Mini Study
I wanted to take some time to refresh my children's memory for continents, oceans, land forms and begin to introduce them to cultural differences and religion. This study was meant for us to take about a week and will introduce the concept of note booking to my children ages 7 - 11. Already 2 AWESOME original art lessons are in the works! Check back next Friday! ![]() FREE Unit Study on AFRICA
The continent of Africa is HUGE and diverse. This unit study will focus on several individual countries as well as give the children a general overview of the continent. Art, crafts, science, cooking and other hands on activities bring the culture to life and give the students an appreciation of the diversity of people and compassion for others. ![]() Free Unit Study on India.
More than just geography lessons. This study was designed to produce thought provoking questions about the caste system and child labor. Embedded in Indian culture for the past 1,500 years, the caste system follows a basic precept: All men are created unequal. Children participating in this study will be encouraged to look compassionately at other cultures. They will explore the varieties of way countries and ministries are reaching out and making a difference today in India. ![]() Welcome to our free France unit study.

Whereas Hamas is a United States-designated terrorist organization whose charter calls for the destruction of the State of Israel; Whereas Hamas continues to reject the core principles of the Middle East Quartet (the United Nations, the United States, the European Union, and Russia)—recognize Israel’s right to exist, renounce violence, and accept previous Israeli-Palestinian agreements; Whereas Hamas has killed hundreds of Israelis and dozens of Americans in rocket attacks and suicide bombings; Whereas, since Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza in 2005, Hamas and other terrorist groups have fired thousands of rockets at Israel; Whereas Hamas has entered into a unity governing arrangement with Fatah and the Palestinian Authority; Whereas the unity governing agreement implies Fatah's and the Palestinian Authority's support for Hamas’ belligerent actions against Israel, potentially contributing to a false perception of legitimacy for Hamas' belligerent actions; Whereas, since June 2014, Hamas has fired nearly 300 rockets at Israel; Whereas Hamas’ weapons arsenal includes approximately 12,000 rockets that vary in range; Whereas innocent Israeli civilians are indiscriminately targeted by Hamas rocket attacks; and Whereas 5,000,000 Israelis are currently living under the threat of rocket attacks from Gaza: Now, therefore, be it That the Senate-- (1)reaffirms its support for Israel’s right to defend its citizens and ensure the survival of the State of Israel; (2)condemns the unprovoked rocket fire at Israel; (3)calls on Hamas to immediately cease all rocket and other attacks against Israel; and (4)calls on Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to dissolve the unity governing arrangement with Hamas and condemn the attacks on Israel. |
