January Eureka: Apprentice, Journeyman, and Masters

Apprentice

The Warrior Systems

Study/Learn

I. Take notes in your CBP on this video as you watch it.


Lymphatic and Immune System


We will have a quiz in class about the immune system, and all the systems we've studied to this point.


II. Review your notes from Chapters 3 and 4.  If you did not bring your tetrahedron to last class, please bring it. You may still have it, we just didn't get to talk much about it. Bring it again.  If you don't still have it, make a new one and bring it.  It only takes a few minutes.  You'll need a blank sheet of paper, your compass, pencil, scissors, and tape or glue.  The instructions are in the Constructing the Universe book, and start at the bottom of page 61, and move onto page 62.  We will be sharing our favorite things about # 4 in class.


III. Watch Episode 8 (the 1970s) of  Inventions that shook the World. Write 3 interesting inventions on your timeline.

Know/Understand

I. Build a bridge. In the Guide to Constructing the Universe, we learn that a triangle is the strongest shape.  It's used in construction all over the place.  Now you get to put this amazing shape to use as you build a bridge! We will test the strength of each bridge in class.  The strongest bridge wins.




The object of this competition is to design, construct and test the most structurally efficient model truss bridge bbbbrr. The bridges will be loaded initially with a  bucket and testing apparatus. Dry sand will be added after the initial loading, until the bridge collapses.  For this, you will need a ½ inch hole in the middle of your bridge for a rod.  If you don’t want a hole in the middle, you need a flat surface on top to stack weights. Either way is fine.

CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS:

• Minimum length 18 inches; maximum length of 24 inches.
• Bridges are to be made of any combination of popsicle sticks, toothpicks, matches, and any type of yarn or string.  Any glue to hold them together is fine. Hot glue works well. However, you may not coat the bridge with anything including glue, paint, stain, etc.
• The bridge must not weigh more than 8 ounces.
• The bridge “road” must extend the entire length of the bridge and maintain a "vehicular roadway"
with a minimum side and top clearance of 2 inches.  (2 inches wide x 2 inches high).

What Does the Number 3 Mean in the Bible?

 Many numbers in the Hebrew language tend to have a deeper meaning.
Three, shelosh[f.], sheloshah [m.] means harmony, new life, and completeness.
The number three appears in the Bible 467 times, fewer than the number seven, but more than most of the other symbolically important numbers.
Sometimes three is used as an emphatic Semitic triplet to describe the intensity of something. It’s not just holy. It’s holy, holy, holy. 
We do have to keep in mind, three isn’t always necessarily something good. In Revelation, we see an evil trinity: Satan, the Antichrist, and the False prophet (Revelations 12-13).
However, typically, three means something complete and good. Satan does often like to take something good from God and corrupt it, much like the number three and the concept of the Trinity.
God has ordered the world to follow mathematical and numerical patterns. We can see his design in how numbers operate even in nature, knowing that everything on earth points back to the fact that God exists, so we have no excuse not to praise him.
We should remember to keep an eye out for any instance we see something thrice in Scripture. It’s either emphatically pointing to the essence of something, or showing the completeness of something.
Sooooooo, where or how do you see 3 represented in our scriptures?  Add 3 instances showing the symbolic nature of 3 to this google Doc.

Journeyman


Study/Learn

I. In The Healing Code read chapters 5, 6 and 7, pages 119-168

II. Write down a "popsicle" memory that you would be willing to share in class.  You can read about popsicle memories on pages 123-124 of The Healing code.


III. In your CPB, write down 5 diseases.  Look up each one and write down what pathogen causes that disease: bacteria, virus, mold, parasite, yeast, something else?

We will do a couple interesting labs in class about the immune system....one will possibly include growing some fascinating bacteria.

Become/Serve
Look up either "belief" or "unbelief" in the scriptures, using the topical guide or internet search tool.  Find a scripture that tells what happens if you believe, or cast off unbelief.  Add your scripture and your findings to this google doc.
