Population

    Today in class we continued the power point on population. We also were given our tests back from last week. I was the only person who got a 100 on the objective part of the test, which gave my confidence for school a boost. Before we went over the power point I had already known about the earth's population and how it could affect us in the future. Such as how at around 11 billion people most of the arable land on earth will be used up and we will start to have a problem. This unnerved me because how I thought the earths population is expanding I believed that we could reach this in the near future. But after looking at the statistics on how many years it has been taking for the earth to grow a billion people I became more comfortable because it seemed like the growth was leveling out. What also could happen is that countries that have a high birth rate will become more developed so that their culture will change to lower their birth rate.

The rise of Christianity

 Toady in class instead of reviewing the test we read and took notes on the next three sections. The first section was on the Rise of Christianity and talked about how Jesus' teachings spread. The most important reason they spread was because his teachings brought salvation to all. Christianity was a vision that a Roman emperor had before he went into battle. They won the battle and he made it so Christians would no longer be persecuted.

More Rome

   Today in class we did more of the Rome power point. We also talked about the Boston marathon for some reason. We also talked about Chernobyl and the radioactive dogs living there.

Rome rap

 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
