10/5/12 & 10/9/12

On October 5 we talke about Paul Revers's ride. We learned that he was no the only one to set out on this ride and that the famous poem about that ride was false. Two other people went with hima nd even made it farther than he did. He ws captured while the others kept going. he gets all the fame becasue he was so famous already. That is interesting becasue I have always believed that it was only Paul Revere. That makes people want to check their facts agian. This also came to play today when we watched a video about how some information can be false becasue your brain can lie to you. it can recall events that never happened. That plays into the American revolution becasue you it can be seen from different perspectives of the war. This was nice to hear becasue it was funny to hear about how your brain can lie to you.
