what I did in class

Today in class my computer was glitching out and still is so I couldn't  do the class work. A few of my class mates also tried to fix my computer but they didn't fix all they did was clear my history.  So I can't do the work I have to do. Hopefully when I post this my computer will allow me to get on cia.gov so I can get the work done. If I can't I don't know what I will do or what will happen to me.

what we did in class

Today in class we got are test back and I didn't do so hot but when we went over the answers a lot of my answers that were wrong were right which is outrages so tomorrow or the next time I see Mr. Shick I need to talk to him so he can fix me grade.

Test day

Today in class I took a test I had to take because I missed the actual day of the test so today I took it and I think I did really well on the test. There was somethings I forgot to study for though but I was confident with the answers I picked. But overall I was really confident on my answers. The was also not that hard to be honest  it was quite easy expect for the question I had no clue on.

Why I missed class

Today I missed class due to a soccer game I had to attend. The bus ride was long it made me fall asleep. Then we lost to a bad 5 to 1 which got me irritated.

I HATE POP QUIZS

Today in class we did a pop quiz which I was not happy about. During the test I felt rushed and could not think straight  at all. I was so worried  about not failing I failed  I think. I don't like doing test in a certin amount of time it get me worked up all the time and then I get frustrated.

question that might appear on the test on Monday

1. What does a time zone mean?
a region of a globe  that observes a uniform standard time for legal commercial.

2.  The prime meridian  passes through what country.
a Wich, England 
b Berlin, Germany
c Liverpool, England
d Whales, England

3.  Define a map
a map is a two dimensional or flat scaled model of the earths surface.


4.  Name 3 things  about latitude
Latitude is a geographic  coordinate that goes from north to south.
Latitude is an imaginary line running parralle to the equator.
Measure distance in degrees 

5. Name 3 things about longitude
Longitude is a coordinate  that goes from east to west 
measured by an imaginary lines 
measures distance in degrees east to west.


6. What two purposes do  maps serve
Maps serve to references as a tool to identify.
A communication tool to convey distribution  of human activities and physical features.


7.  Name two lines that go parallel to each other
Latitude and Longitude 


8. What is geography
Were things are found on the earths surface and the regions for locations 


9.  What is the prime meridian
The longitude of 0 that cross through green wich England 


10.  What are the names of the lines that go across the world
Latitude and Longitude

More notes on Grids and Time Zones

Time zone,UTC,Daylight savings, Standard deviation

A time zone is a region of the globe that observes a uniform standard time for legal, commercial, and social purpose .

UTC is the primary standard by which the world regulates  clocks and time. Green wich mean time (GMT) is often used as a synonym for UTC.GMT predates UTC by nearly 300 years.

Daylight saving Time

Some temp zone countries uses daylight savings  time for part of the year, typically by adjusting local clock time by an hour.

Grids and Time Zones

Today in class we took notes on grids and time zones.  Latitude is a geographic coordinate that specifies the north and south poloes of a point on Earths surface. Latitude is also measured by imaginary lines running parallel to the equator, and used to measure distance in degrees north or south of the equator. Facts about Latitude, known as parallels, run in a east - west direction, measure distance north or south from the equator, are parallel to one another and never met, and crosses prime meridian at right angle. Longitude is also a geographic coordinate that specifies the east - west position of a point on Earths surface. It also means measured by an imaginary lines circling the earth and running through the poles, and used to measure distance indegres east or west from the prime meridian. The prime meridian passes through Green wich, England and is given the position of 0 longitude. The map is a two - dimensional or flat scaled model of the earths surface. The art and science of mapmaking is a cartography.  Maps serve two purposes as a reference tool to identify on objects absolute and reactive location. As a comouncation tool to convey the distribution of human activities  or physical features. Absolute location is a portion as expressed in degrees, minutes, and seconds of latitude ( north or south of the equator) and longitude ( east or west of the prime meridian)
Relative location is the regional position or situation of a place relative to position of other places.

why I wasn't in class

I wasn't in class because I had a soccer game at archbishop splading. We lost to a score of 3-1 I believe and on the way there was so boring.

Notes from class

Key question: How do geographers describe were things are.
Site: the physical character of a place.
Important characteristics include climate, water source, topography, soil, vegetation, latitude, and elevation.
Humans have the ability to modify the characteristic of a site.

Country locations

Taking a test

I took a test and I forgot a lot of the things that were on the test. Am pretty sure I got a c on it. The test had everything from Garcia to Ancient Greece. I also had to sit out in the hall way which was peaceful and quiet for the most part.

Some in class mini research works stuff

What does agora mean. it means  a public open space used for assemblies and markets

1. What does polis mean.a city state in ancient Greece, especially as considered in its ideal form for philosophical purposes.

   
   

   The importance of the year 508 BC is that the ancient greeks introduced Democracy in Athens by Cleisthenes. He established a constiution and is often called " The Father of Athenian Democray" The first time normal people stood up to there rulers

   Socreates method of Elenchus, elenctic method, or Socratic debate, is a form of cooperative argumentative dialogue between individuals, based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to draw out ideas and underlying presuppositions.

   
   

   
   

   If the greeks called you an idiot they wanted you to partipactae 

   
   

   
   

   
   

   
   

   I got this information from Google and Mr. Shick

I left class early to go to a soccer game

I have to leave early because I have a soccer game I have to attend and I hope we win against belie ear

More on Garcia

A message to Garcia by Elbert Hubbard was published in 1899. The message was also reprinted and sold over 40 million copies and translated into 37 languages. There was two movies produced about the message which I don't understand why they would do that. The message litrey has 3 pargraphs. The message is also a popular slang expression. This was also used in the military. Little did you know Rowan was an army officer and McKinley was the 25 president. There was also a mountain named for him until 2015

what we did in class today

Today in class we read A Message to Garci and took notes about the message. The message is about a guy delivering a message to a guy named Garci who is an insurgent fighting against the Spanish with the United States to liberate Cuba. The president of The United States McKinley sent someone named Rowan. Rowan spent  3 weeks trying to find Garci in a jungle. But he finds out that Genral Garci is dead. The author of the book Elbert Hubbered believes people are dumb and bad at there jobs and the average person is lay so he thinks people should get hit if there not doing there job correctly or just bad at it.

The best part of day one was seeing a few friends of mine I haven't seen in a while. The worst part of the day was going back to school and sitting in a boring class room all day. My seat is ok but not the best.
