essay questions

Today in Western Civ we had to write the essay portion of our exams. It is actually a good thing that we took it early because now I don't have to worry about writing essays for the exam. I can just focus on the objective part. I have to admit that I was scared writing the essays because I didn't know whether I would write good sentences or not. But I think that I did well. This was our last class so byyyyyyyyyyyeeeee.

This year was literally the best history class I had because the class was really fun and the people were really funny. I will miss it (:
Here's to sophomore year.

review test

Today in Western Civ today we reviewed our test on Rome that we took yesterday. This is the second to last class so we will probably just be reviewing for our exam on Wednesday (?).

Oh yeah, we have our essay part of the exam tomorrow because Mr. Schick will be in ChIagco. So yeah, tonight I'll pick three essays and get my notes together to write the essay tomorrow (:

Peace x



Me trying to get to the end of the year

test

Today in Western Civ we had our test for Ancient Rome. I don't really know what to expect for my grade. I'm hoping I do well... A lot of the answers were easy because we basically went over all of that stuff in class and we talked a lot about it so. But I got confused with some of the numbers like with the Senate and House of Reps. for USA and Rome but I don't know.. We are going to find out our grade soon after everyone gets finished. sooooooo.....

My....



Grade....



Is.....



83%


It's not the best grade but it's still passing I guess. I'm going to do great on the exam though soooooo yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhh!

yesterday

on Friday, (24 May 2015) I was not in class.

more and more and more projects

Today in Western Civ we had more presentations for the Rome projects.

First was Alyssa, Cheesca, and Jess and they made a Roman pot. It was really cool because they showed us their pot and it looked nice. The power point had good information so I gave them a 98%!! Good project.

Next was Rory, Jeremiah, Parker and Dylan and they talked about Gladiator fights- of course. They had a power point and they made a little sculpture. It was pretty interesting. The power point had good information, and they all explained well. So I gave them a 96%!! Interesting Project.

Lastly was Karson, Kendall, and Ellee and they did a Roman game, like Monopoly/Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader. It was actually really cool!! It was really creative considering the fact that they made the board and the pieces themselves. They also kind of made the game up, it was really amazing!

-pardon silence for the greatest phone answerer in this whole class - Jayla Ferguson - who will probably be getting a award soon.

Anyways, it was really great and a good way to study for the test so :)  Alright so that was all the presentations!

Until next time, with Zaire Johnson

more and more projects

Today in Western Civ we had more presentations for the Rome project. The ones today were really cool! First was Jayla's project and she made a pot that the Ancient Romans would have made. It was actually really cool and she explained the project and how they used it well!

Next was a presentation by Arthur and Alex and they did great! They had a power point and made a structure like thing about the architecture of Rome. The structure was really good and that cat was great too. Best part.

Lastly was Caitlin and Trish. Now that was awesome actually! They did diaries from Ancient Rome, a plebian and a patrician. It was great!

projects!!

So today in Western Civ was the beginning of us presenting our projects for Ancient Rome! My group, Veronica, Meghan, Rosemary and I, when first because we had food. I was very nervous to be honest about my food because it was a weird recipe and it didn't look like the picture. So me being a perfectionists in some senses, I was nervous about what people would think about it. But I think everyone enjoyed our food, so that's great! We served a appetizer (Meghan), the general meal (Veronica), dessert (myself) and the drink (Rosemary). The salad was pretty good, it tasted like it had mint in it. The pasta was good too, I think that was everyone's favoruite. I thought the dessert turned out alright, I don't think everyone liked it but you know.. I thought the Roman drink was great, it tasted very good! 

Next was Adam, Steven, and Evan and they did a "rap" song. It was a parody of 'Fancy by Iggy Azalea... It was really good actually, it took them a little time to get the song up, but it was worth the wait to be honest! I though they did great with writing the lyrics. And, yeah, I definitely think it'll be nominated for a Grammy one day.

The last presentation was a power point. It had a lot of information.

So tomorrow there will be more presentation while I'm excited about. I really want to see what everyone else did!

Peace x 

Just blessed you with these beautiful human beings : )
