Today in Mr. Schick's class we continued the presentation and took some more notes on the vocabulary he gave us. I was just informed that I had a doctor's appointment at 2:00 in the class before. I was a little nervous and I didn't know if I could just walk up to the office at the end of class or if I needed to tell Mrs. A (my next teacher).

He was really nice about it and I thanked him for the offer. Then we watched a video of his dog jumping because he was so happy to see him. We didn't get to finish up the vocabulary but I have a feeling that he is going to touch up on it again tomorrow. At the end of class Mr. Schick told me I could just go to my locker and then head up to the office and I didn't need to give anyone my slip. Also, my doctor's appointment didn't go so well.

Due to this they looked towards trade to keep the dynasty going. The trade, however, couldn’t make up for the advancements that they didn’t have causing them to collapse and end the Dark Ages. Who was Homer? Homer was a Greek poet who lived between 4...
