Amphibians:
This week we looked at the animal called the Amphibian. The word Amphibian means of two worlds. They are born from jelly eggs and spend the first half of there life in water then the second half of their life is spent on land. They are vertebrates (have a backbone or spine) and are cold blooded (the body temperature is the same as the environment around them. They also have skin that is moist and soft. Some amphibians include frogs, toads, and salamanders.

A Word From Mr. John (Time is on my side (Rolling Stone’s song). Maybe not so much):

Did You Know (Ethiopia Uses A Different Calendar)?:
Ethiopia uses a unique calendar that is about seven to eight years behind the Gregorian calendar, featuring 13 months (12 months of 30 days and a 13th short month called Pagumē) and a different New Year’s date. This calendar, known as the Ethiopian Calendar, stems from the ancient Alexandrian calendar and is deeply connected to the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Its discrepancy in years is largely due to an earlier calculation of Jesus Christ’s birth compared to the Gregorian calendar’s calculation, reflecting Ethiopia’s historical independence from colonial powers like the Roman church that adopted the Gregorian system.
