Today in class we started a new unit after the excellence unit and test. To start the unit off we had a work sheet on the different regions around the world. I felt like this work sheet was very easy, I only had to research one name of a region. I believe I did so well because I used to be very interested in geography and at one of my old schools, which was a K-8 school I came in third place in the geography bee when I was in third grade. I have since stopped studying so far into geography, but still retained some of the knowledge I had learned in the past. This makes me hopeful for this new unit because I fell like I know more than most of class. I am also hopeful for this unit because I had previously had a passion for geography and might be able to bring some of that passion to learning again.
Today we got a lot accomplished. First we reviewed all of Rome by listening to a very well done rap made by Mr.Schick. After that we got very far in the power point. We started with how the common folk were given free bread as a sort of welfare. Then we took notes on the Colosseum and Circus Maxims which I have been to. We moved onto Julius Caesar and his conquering of Gaul and the Rubicon and how Pompey became jealous. We finished with his murder by the senate. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1zEi9xi3gni-iKd7UYUX41NRYB2V-qjsz9PyaU5awrp0/edit?usp=sharing
