Hello, Mr Pimentel . This is a summary of  two missing lessons.

THE UPS AND DOWN OF YO - YOS

   Well, no body knows for sure when or where YO -YOS
originated , but the best guess is China about 3000  years ago.

   But, the fisrt historical record of YO - YOS is however from
Greece around 500 BC. YO -YOS next appeared in India around
1765. Within a few decades, it really appeared in Western Europe.

   In Paris in the 1790 , this toy was called  JOU -JOU, and one
theory is that the name YO YO  comes from this term . In instance,
in England it was a symbol of  wealth . In fact , it was made of crystal  ,
jade , or ivory and were decorated with silver, gold and precious stones.


   At last ,a filipino  named Pedro Flores started building this precious
plaything , with wood and those were the first that in which string were not tied to
the axle.
