Human Geo

Today in human geo class we did not take that much notes.  The only thing we took notes on were the first paragraph and had to write the last sentence down.  After that your computer ran out of power so we could note take notes on your blog.  The first thing we talked about was how farming in our community could help the entire world.  It takes a lot of gallons of gas for the food you have of your plate to get to you and when people near you farm it helps take away those gallons of gas we are using to get the food to us.  Then we talked about the states that do thing like farm and the other states that are more like cities.  We started to think about the people those states voted for and if that president would help them.  Most of the farming states would vote republicans.  Last thing we talked about was voting for presidents.  The people that vote for presidents the most were the older people like 70 and older.  You said you think that 16 year olds should be able to vote but I don't think they should be allowed to vote.  I know I would vote if I was allowed to but I don't know if I would want some of the other people my age voting for the president.  That seems like a lot of responsibility and I think most of the kids my age would take it as a joke.

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.
