done with the projects

Today wee saw 2 presentations. First on was about democracy it was a short one because there is not much you can tell about democracy 0 visuals. Then we saw one about the The Trireme that was a good one but I think they did a poor job of presenting. They built a solid trireme and then when we were done with those 2 presentation we go right back into work and read some from the book from page 146 to 149. It was about the Greece math, geography, science, astronomy and art. We saw how did they developed from time. Blogs and the Project was the last thing for the quarter. I don't think it will bring up my grade to an A so my grade will stay B...

Our presentation

Today in class we continued the project presentations and we did ours today. I think we come up with a good presentation event tho it was little too boring. I loved our work and looking forward to get an high grade. Our work was about the Greek Map and important events happened in ancient greek history. It was kind of a summary in whole chapter. I think Mr. Schick like it too. I wasn't nervous for the first time in a presentation because I prepared for my lines and al that and I did lot of works on the map and the essay.

Presentations

Today in class we start presenting our ancient Greek Project. SO far we have seen a projects about Greek food, Spartan Weapons and Ancient Olympics. After every presentation we graded them I think I gave everyone a fairly enough grade. It was a good class day and I think ours is the next class. The projects are going great so far.

last day of project

Today in all class time we work on our projects I did some research on battles between Sparta and Athens and write about Parthenon and we talk about what are we going to do over the weekend. My part on the project cancelled because it was a snow day yesterday and I was going to get a map but now it is too late to make the map 3d so now I got some new things to do over weekend. I will do ships and parthenon if I can

More philosophy and project

Today in class we finished the video about Philosophy. Which makes me kind of sad because it was the most exiting topic we had covered yet. After we done with the video and taking notes, we have split in to our groups to work on our project about the ancient Greece. We start writing are essays and I have got the materials we are going to use on for doing the map and somebody bought figures that we are going to put on the map and the other 2 start writing our essay for the project. I believe that it will turn out as a good project and we all will get an solid grade.
