After the test

Today we took the test. It was really nice because we were allowed to use our blogs, even though I wish I would have made my blogs a little more informational. Thankfully, I did some studying and I think I did really well. Hopefully this will boost my grade and get me off to a good start for semester 2.

More Review

Today we stared out by going over Mr. Schick's pet peeves. It was actually pretty funny and gave us a lot of new inside jokes for class. Then we went over the PowerPoint on Mesopotamia. He told us all the very important things that we should know for the test and told some stories which helped us remember certain topics. It was a nice review. For those of us taking the test on Friday, we have tonight and tomorrow to study for the test so hopefully everyone does well!

Individual Review

Today we had a sub in class because Mr. Schick had to go with the academic team. We spent class time reviewing for our test, which will be on Friday. I was absent last Friday so I did not know how much we covered. Thankfully, I have taken notes on the PowerPoint and reviewed Mr. Schick's blog which will hopefully get me ready for the test. We have to be able to find Mesopotamia, the Fertile Crescent, Sumer, the Mediterranean Sea, Asia Minor, the Tigris River, and the Euphrates River on a map. We also have to be able to define 7 terms as well as other questions. It's a lot to know but the PowerPoint gives us all the information we have to know.

New Start

Today was the first class of Western Civ. and we had a lot of new people join the class. Mr. Schick went over all of the policies of his class and explained everything about our blogs. Unfortunately, barely anyone on the class could set their blogs up in class because the system is bad. He also told everyone they need to get a composition notebook for note taking. It's nice to not have to stress about all of this because it is all stuff I already knew considering I have already taken Human Geo with Mr. Schick. It's nice to get a fresh start with grades and an entirely new topic and class.
