Hello everyone and greetings! I usually try to do 2 Captain’s Logs a month, but sometimes I only get to do 1. 🙂
Overall
This month has been pretty good. (Other than being sick for awhile) My family and I are putting up a fence for the 30 chickens I just bought, I am prepping for the Film Festival and the Wheat Order, movie making is starting up slowly, and I have been trying to catch up on reading and writing. As Easter approaches we also have to hit violin practice hard!!! And of course, test prep!
U. S. History 1 CLEP
The CLEP this month is U. H. History 1. It covers 1500-1877, and I have enjoyed studying for it. The traditional take on history is not my take on history, so I have had to “unlearn” some of my leanings to test well on this exam, but overall it hasn’t been to bad. One big topic is the Constitution vs. the The Articles of Confederation. My sister, Rachel, is a huge history buff (especially about the 1700s) and, because of lots of debates and discussions with her, I am ready for this part of the test! I took a practice test on Friday and made a 60. That was really encouraging for me!
I borrowed the book Making America and I really like it for studying!!!
On the Horizon
My next test is Information Systems and Computer Applications CLEP , which is supposed to be my CLEP for March. I don’t know how this one will work out. I hope to take a practice test soon and then decide how studying will go.
