scale and globalization

   Today in class while the sub was in we went to your blog and did the assignment posted. My computer is quickly dying so I am trying to get this done before it dies. The blog posted focused on how geographers use scale and the term globalization. The definition for globalization used in the was how it is becoming easier and easier to communicate with other humans from around the world. The definition on dictionary.com says that globalization is the act of extending to other parts of the world.  Another definition was that it is worldwide integration and development which is very similar to the definition put on the blog. For the items I use most at home I chose my computer and my phone. My laptop was manufactured by Lenovo which is a company based in China my computer was also made in China. My Phone is made by Apple which is based in the United States, but my phone was built in a different Asian country most likely China.

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
