In todays class we did the last of the presentations. Today was more of a funny day then usual. Everyone was laughing and having a good time. Next class we have a test and I hope I get a good grade on it.
Todays class was our first time meeting since before break. We talked about Political Geography and how the world is organized. We talked about the categories a Country, Nation and State. Then we got into more detail with culture and religion and what each nation/state does.
In class today we learned some new terms. We learned what an Agora and a Polis is. An agora is a public area for assemblies and markets. Polis is a city state in ancient Greece especially as considered in its ideal form for philosophical purposes. we learned that the year 508 BC was important to the greeks because thats the year they established democracy. We learned who Socrates was and what he did and that he was sentenced to death by drinking poison. The last thing we learned about was the Socratic Method this is a cooperative argumentative form of communication.
In todays class we went over the topic we talked about last class. Then Mr. Schick announced to us that we have a project due Friday. We worked on the project for the class and I finished it after school before I went home.
