Midterm review 3.0

    Today classes were on a shorter schedule because we needed to get to every class for exam review. In class today we went over the first constructed response. The review in class really helped me understand the concept of the constructed response and I now have a map or plan of my writing. I took your advice on studying the demographic transition chart. I know to use lots of vocabulary words in my response because those show better understanding of the topic. I have proficiently studied for this exam and am confident. As for my religion exam before I am not as confident. I have lots a terms to memorize and hope it does not prohibit or hurt my exam.

They won the battle and he made it so Christians would no longer be persecuted.

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

A message to Garcia

     While reading A Message to Garcia I had much to think about and many emotions. During the reading I almost felt guilty because currently I would not be able to carry the message. I am not the most hardworking person who goes out of his way to accomplish a goal the way it should be accomplished. I always finish something with the required work and will definitely find a way to do minimum work possible. I felt like A Message to Garcia was speaking to those who don't do the most work and to inspire them to better themselves not just for them but for others.            The story also tries to convey how people who are able to carry this message are what all of society needs. In the story the author states that " If men do not act for themselves, then what will they do when the benefit of their effort is for all." This explains if you do not do the work for your self how will you be able to work for other people, and if you can not do work f...
