Today in Mr. Schick's class we got our tests back, and if you got a 100% you rang the bell twice. If you got an A, you rang it once, and if you didn't get an A, you didn't get to ring it. I didn't get to ring it this time because I didn't get an A. I got an 86. Socrates also checked our world maps and routes to school assignments. Then we took some notes off of the front board and discussed why every point on Earth is unique. We talked about place and region and discussed the difference. We then discussed why Socrates and his wife moved to the countryside and where he used to live. Socrates and his wife used to live near the festival and then they moved because his wife wanted to have horses. They bought a horse and had it live at a friend's, but then later decided that they wanted to own a place where the horse could live. So Socrates and his wife moved so they could own a horse. Mr. Schick wasn't too happy about moving but he says that he enjoys having a pool and he likes the space. I personally like living in the countryside because you don't have to worry about yelling and having the neighbors hear. If your neighbors do hear, then they can just deal with it. I haven't lived in a court for eight years now going on nine, and I don't think I want too either.

Region and Cultural Location  Today's class started off just like it always does. We complain and ask to leave the room, and Mr. Schick declines us every time. Every class we spend ten minutes picking on each other and pointing out what isn't right; then we get to the lesson. I walked in with my bunny which Mr. Kimble named Junior, and sat him down on my lap. Junior is about two feet tall and light blue. He was being passed around the room because everyone wanted to hold him or feel him because he is really soft. then he came back to me and Mr. Schick grabbed him and put him in an empty desk in the front row. Then we got to work. We talked about region and cultural location and took notes. We wrote down the definitions and then did an activity in which you needed to know the states which took forever. Earlier in the day in Religion, Mr. Kimble smiled and laughed when he saw my bunny walk through the door. I set him on the ground and walked over to set my phone in his door cub...

CAKE!! Today I brought in chocolate cake and everyone was afraid that there wasn't enough but there was actually more than enough and I had left overs. Everyone cut their own slice because Maddy couldn't figure out that if you just cut the piece and then stick the fork under it to act as a spatula, you could pick it up easily. It would be like picking up a box or a palette with a forklift. Then we took some notes and I didn't eat any cake because I was afraid that there wouldn't be enough. We took some notes and I forgot that I still had Mr. Schick's pen so I gave it back to him at the end of the day. Actually I didn't, I taped it to the door of his film studio with a nice little note. Hopefully he got his pen back because I'll probably end up using it again tomorrow. After taking some notes, many people asked questions and Mr. Schick was so proud because most of them were half decent. Not like, can fish drown? They were questions that were asked for an an...

Notes Jesus of Nazareth Roman power spread to Judea; home of the Jews around 63 B.C. 6 A.D. Rome seized control of the Jewish kingdom and made it a province of the empire. Biblical tradition told of a Messiah that would come to restore and save the Jews. Jews believed that they would be saved by this Messiah. Sometime around 6 and 4 B.C., Jesus; a Jew, was born into the town of Bethlehem in Judea. Raised in Nazareth in northern Palestine, he was baptized under John the Baptist. Jesus began his public ministry at the age of thirty. He worked, taught, preached, and performed miracles upon the people. Most of what is known about Jesus can be found in the gospels in the Bible. Because Jesus was not about the fame and the glory, he was known by many people. He did not want to be rich or have a high status which the poor liked. Jesus' Death and Resurrection Jesus was welcomed into Jerusalem in 29 A.D. by many large crowds and praised. The crowds greeted him as the king or th...
