Today we had a pop quiz!  You gave a lot of hints last class that we were going to have one.   I found the test very easy because I studied and made sure new where everything was on the map.  Some people didn't study so it took them a pretty long time to take the test.
After that we talked and about and took notes on site and situation.  Then we did the physical character of a place.
Some thing are the climate.  If it is cold that changes everything it means different animals and different life style.
Next one was the water source. They could get water from a ocean, lacks, river, etc.  That also means that is a different kind of food they might eat.
Another one is topography which means what the land is like.  It could be flat, rocky, lots of trees, and water.  The topography can show you they way people might grow food or what food they grow.
Next one is soil.  If you have bad soil you might not be able to grow as much food and have to do things like fishing or hunting to get your food.  If you have good soil you are probably a farmer and grow things like corn.
Vegetation are the types of vegetables you eat depending o the climate and where you live.
then we talk about latitude which is about how close you are to the equator.
Then we talked about elevation which mean how high you are above the water.

Yesterday in class we didn't do much. We went over one of are old test that we had.  I got a 78% o it so I think I did ok on it.  After that we took the test that we would of took if we would of voted to have a test Friday.  It was that hard but I didn't want to risk having a test and the failing it and my C go down.  After we finished it you gave us the answers so we can review for the exam.  I really want to get my grade up for western civ because it is at a 79.12% and I really want a B so I can get all B's on my report card.

Yesterday in class we went over the power point and had someone in the class take notes on the board and we would all copy it.  I found it a lot more interesting then the other power points we have been doing because it talked about how they started to care about art, mathematics, and literature again. And also starting to look back at Rome and Greece and see how they did things.  It talked about a lady that was very Richard care about art and a lot of other things.  She would pay the artist to paint her or paint something she would want and there would put her in the back round.  For examples she asked Leonardo da Vinci t paint the nativity and put her in the back ground. If it wasn't for her we would not ave know a lot of these artist would have even existed.
