Day 21 ~ Going Over the Test

     Today in class we went over the test and made sure we had all the correct answers for the test. This is helpful because when the exam comes around we will have the right answers and resources when the exam comes around. This will definitely help me study and be able to correctly prepare. We also had to go over absolute and relative location because everyone struggled with it in the test. That was the one part of the test that I git mostly wrong because the questions were vague and hard to match with the correct answer. This test was pretty stressful because all the questions on the test were very general and really confused me.

Day 55 ~ last day of the semester

     Today was our last day of human geography with Mr.schick so we decided as a class to gather one last time to watch Jeopardy. As a class we all try to figure out the answers before the contestant on the show can answer and if one of us gets the questions right we either get bragging rights or just a boost in self-confidence. I always thought it was funny when Mr.Schick took the game too seriously and decides to get a bit heated toward not getting the answer correct. Sadly, I will not have Mr. Schick next semester so I will not have anyone to randomly have a loud outburst of enthusiasm when its first Mod and everyone really is not one hundred percent awake yet. But overall I will miss Huaman Geo as a whole next semester.

Day 54 ~ Guns, Germs, and Steel Test

     Today in class we took the Guns, Germs, and Steel and I think that I did good on it and I am hoping that it will not bring my grade down. I figured out a way to take the test without getting nervous about the scantron and I think that it positively affected me. Today in class we also talked on one with Mr. Schick about our exam grades and that helped me a lot for knowing how I got the grade that I got on the exam. This also helped put my final semester grade into perspective and gave me a lot of confidence in going into the last test of the semester. I feel like with the studying of notes that I did last night and the rewriting the notes to be more organized helped me in the long run. I did not feel like I forgot anything or had trouble with any of the questions.

Day 50 ~ Guns, Germs, and steel

     Today in class we watched more of the National geographic Version of Guns, germs, and steel. Which was originally a novel by Jared Diamond who was a professor at UCLA. The parts of the video that we watched in class today centered on the main question of whether or not white people are considered more genetically superior to the rainforest natives that live in Papua New Guinea. I do not agree with the idea of whites being more generally superior over the natives and neither does Jared Diamond. He does a good job of showing how the native people's lives are very simple but they use the resources around them to build shelters and sustain a stable life. The video also shows the jobs that the men and women take part in. For example, the men in the video were usually the ones that we hunting and building shelters and the women were cutting down trees and using them to produce large amounts of food.
