The history behind the Indus river!!!

Filed under: History of India, AJC, 6V —— ajc6v @ 10:05 pm

In 2000 B.C. the first civilization was formed along the Indus river. It was known to be the first earliest civilization in the world. The word Indus is the English name that came from Sinthos in Greek and Sindus in Latin.The Indus river is a natural boundary between Afganistan and Iran. The Indus river supplies many large industries and is the main supply of fresh water in Pakistan. It is considered very sacred in the Hindu religion. It is known to have 2 large cites called: Harppa and Mohenjo Daro, (which is now Pakistan). The river was supported by a base called the Indus Valley Civilzation. The Indus Valley Civilzation is where wheat and barley were grown. There were many animals that were raised in the Indus Valley Civilization. Cotton was grown there too. No one knows when the civilization ended. But it is known that Mohenjo Daro was attacked and destroyed in the mid 2nd millennium bc.

So the first civilization was at 2000bc and the Indus river was very sacred. Also the river had a base and it was called: Indus Valliy Civlivization. My source was:http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Indus+river

This project enhanced my thinking and google searching skills. I would never have known how important this river was if I had not done this project. The most important fact about the Indus River as I told you was that it was one of the first civilizations in the world. And that is my history of India project.

On one night as I’ve been told Mr.Hetherington’s laptop made funny sounds and he didn’t know what to do. Also he was at a meeting and he was about to do a little presentation with his laptop as so I’ve been told. So now Mr.Hetherington said,” ooo no now i’m so dead I can’t do my presentation”. After he said he turn off his computer and as he turned it back on it didn’t turn back on. [He finally borrowed one from Mr. C. to finish his presentation.]

A Vacation with Mr.Bell!!!!! :)

Filed under: AJC, 6V —— ajc6v @ 9:14 am

One day I asked Mr.Hetherington if I could take Mr.Bell home for February vacation and he said yes. So after that I went home and played with my freinds and Mr.Bell. On the 24 of February I went on a trip to Vermont for 4 days and I brought Mr.Bell with me. He liked the house my family stayed in and he stayed in the house too. I also went on Okemo mountain, but he couldn’t come. So when I came home he was excited to see me. After that great vaction I’m home and so is Mr.Bell.

Filed under: AJC, 6V —— ajc6v @ 2:58 pm

Have you ever been to Florida I have. I can (tell you) about florida’s beachs and much more. The thin(g) I love about florida is its beaches, Florida has great beachs like Daytona beach. Plus Florida has theme parks and even I bet Florida has 500 theme parks. One other thing Florida has (is) cool hotels like the Hard Rock hotel in Orlando. Orlando is a very big place and with a lot of people. That was all about my fun trip to Florida.:)
