We actually ended up going today, we were the last group to go that day but im glad its over with. I did the powerpoint and i was a little shaky but its all good and Tebo talked about the Model. Mr. Schick asked to keep it forever so i think that means he liked it, fingers crossed

March 28th, 2019

Today in Class we were supposed to get to at least 3 or 4 projects, but we only got to one. It was pretty good but they made food and i didnt eat it. It looks like we will be doing our presentation on Tuesday, which is good

Wasn't in class today due to Illness.

Monday, March 25th

Today in Class, we and Tebo went over what we were going to do for our project. We are going to make a model of the Battle of Thermopylae. It's gonna be really good and It's gonna look really nice when its finally put together. Hopefully we can get an A on it in the end.

March 21, 2019

Today in class we went over the philosophers in the Ancient Greek times such as Plato, Socrates & Aristotle. We have a test tomorrow worth 100 points but I actually feel really good about it. We also have a big project due next week but me and Tebo will be fine.

March 19th, 2019

Today in class, instead of doing the project again we did more of the powerpoint, learned about the Wars and focused more on the history of Greece. Mr. Schick also told us of the test that we are having on Friday the 22nd. I really wanna keep my A so I have to study for it

March 18th, 2019

Today in Class, me and Tebo went over our project ideas and how we could make it. We decided to ditch the Shield idea because of the lack of resources, so instead we are doing the battle of Thermopylae in the Peloponnesian War. We are going to make a scene involving the 300 and describe what happen.

March 15th, 2019

Today in class we learned that we were going to have to do a 100 point project for the next quarter and it will be hard. Me and Tebo are making shields with the designs of each city state and how they fought in battle. We are doing Macedonia, Persia, Sparta and Athens

March 13th, 2019

Today while Mr. Schick was absent we watched a crash course history video. We learned more about the rise of the Athenian Empire and Democracy. Here is an important question asked on our assignment during the video:

• What happened in Athens while Cleisthenes was in Exile?

Answer: The Athenian people revolted for the first time in History and overthrew Isagoras, leading to the recalling and crowning of Cleisthenes

March 12th, 2019

Today in Class we did the same, we just took notes and learned about the history of Democracy, bringing up big years like 508 BCE (the birthday of Democracy) and important figures like Hippias, Cleisthenes and the fall of Isagoras leading to the rise of Democracy and the Athenian Empire.

Today in Class we went on with the powerpoint after we didn't do it on Friday because we were being disrespectful. Today was kinda long and i don't remember what we really did. However, i know we did go over the Homeric Question if he was really real or not. I don't think I would enjoy reading the books he suppose wrote because they are so long.

March 8th, 2019

Today in Class we were gonna do the powerpoint but someone was talking, i don't know. All I know is we took textbook notes the whole time and it was okay cause I got to listen to music. Here are some important Government terms. 

• Monarchy - ruled by one
• Aristocracy - ruled by more then one or a group
• Oligarchy - Rich people trying to over throw the Aristocracy. 
• Tyrant- Cruel leader who tries over throw the Government

March 6th, 2019

Today we went over the powerpoint a little bit more and went over a lot about the Terrain of Greece:

• We learned that Greece is a Peninsula and its located in the Mediterranean Sea. 
• Greece is 3/4 Mountains and 1/4 Arable Land. 
• Greece is surrounded by 3 Seas: Adriatic, Aegean & Ionian Sea
• App. 2000 islands in the Ionian & Aegean Sea

We also learned about Greek Figures like Homer and the Homeric Question - Was he even real?

March 5th, 2019

Today in Class we did the same thing we always do for the first day of the unit. We did the presentation for the first half of class and notes out of the textbook, I like the text book notes better though because I can listen to music. Greece is a lot more interesting so far

March 4th, 2019

Today in class we took our Egypt test and i did well on it, class was kinda boring again today and i wanna start Greece. I'm doing a lot better in this class then in Human Geography which is good and the quarter is almost over which is really surprising.
