Rome Test

We took our test on Ancient Rome today in class. I think that I was very well prepared for this test because we reviewed in class a lot and went over the power point many times. I also think that the song Mr. Schick made up helped because it made me remember certain facts that I probably would've forgotten otherwise. The song helped me with a few questions and I think it was a good idea to make it. I don't know what my grade on the test is yet, but I'm hoping it will boost my grade up right before finals.

Rome Test Review

Since our test about Rome is on Tuesday, we reviewed today in class. The test was moved from today to Tuesday so that we had more time to prepare. We reviewed the Rome Powerpoint again and took some more notes. I think that I need to study the political details more than anything so I took good notes on that when we reviewed it. If everything studies and looks over our notes, I think we can all do well on the test.

Presentation day 3

The last three groups presented their projects in class today. First, Alayna and Delaney presented their powerpoint and Mosaic. We had to grade everyone based on how we thought they did and write it down on a piece of paper for Mr. Schick. Second, Ariana presented her poster and the Pantheon model that she build. Last, Josh, Adam, and Adam presented their wall that they built out of clay and the powerpoint they made. To end class, Mr. Schick talked about how his daughter started a job yesterday and got her name in the paper.

Presentation day 1

Me and Kacey presented our project first today. We think it turned out really well and we will get a good grade. The Libum was good but it wasn't as good as when we took it out of the oven at first but they were still good. We also presented our pottery which turned out well. After we saw a roman painting that someone painted by hand. Last, we saw a Roman aqueduct that was made and demonstrated. We only got to share three of the projects today.

More work on our Project

Mr. Schick gave us more time today to work on our project. Kacey wasn't here today, so I finished the research for our trifold to work on this weekend. I also worked on the paper we have to write to go with the trifold and project. I found information and cites on the Ancient Roman drinking vessel and what foods the rich and poor ate. We were given the whole class to do the project.

Pop quiz

In class we had a pop quiz on Ancient Rome. I did well and only got one question wrong about tribunes. After we took the quiz, we went over it and Mr. Schick went to grade it. For the rest of the class, we were allowed to work on our projects. Me and Kacey did some more research on Roman culture to put on our trifold.
