Essay Portion of Exam

Today in class, we took our essay part of our exam. Mr. Schick handed us each an essay book to write in. We had limited time, so we only had to pick two of the five questions. Last night I wrote some facts I wanted to make in my essays. I felt like I was prepared for this and did very well.

Rome Test!

Today in class, we took the big Rome test. I studied a little over the weekend and today on my off mods. I felt like I knew most of the things we reviewed in class. The hardest part was remembering the numbers of the amount of members in the different branches of government. Since I left class early to talk to Mr. Kimble, I wasn't there when test scores came in. Apparently I got a 98 on the test :)

Review for Rome Test

Today in class, we reviewed more on Rome. We went over the big power point more and went over the things we need to know for the test. While Mr. Schick was teaching, I took notes on my laptop. I hope I do well on this test, knowing it is the last one before exams! After we were done with that, Mr. Schick told us about the writing exam. He said it will be on Wednesday and that we should read his blog for more details and questions.

End of Rome Projects

Today in class, we listened to the last of the Rome projects. First, Alayna and Delaney presented their mosaic with a power point. I thought their mosaic looked cool. Then, Ariana taught us about the Pantheon. Her model looked so good and she explained it well. Finally, Adam, Adam, and Josh presented their Hadrian wall made out of clay. It was fun to learn about Rome.

More of Rome Presentations

Today in class, only two groups went. First was the Roman baths by Kelsey, Jake, and Kyle. I think they did a good job explaining each room and how the Romans used it. Next, was Ryan, Luke, and Pierce who did crucifixion. They built a huge cross and put facts around it. I thought they showed how painful this could be and explained it well.

Start of Rome Presentations

Today in class, we started to present our Rome projects. Meredith and I went first and taught about Ancient Roman food and pottery. We served the food, and I thought we did a good job. Next, Avery went and presented her mummy painting. Her painting was amazing! Then, Stevie and Hunter presented their aqueduct. I thought it was cool how they demonstrated it. It was fun to see what people did for the project.

Absent

I will not be in class today because I am going to the Black Eyed Susan horse race.
