Wednesday

Today in class Mr. Schick told us that our test will be Friday instead on today. We are not having the test today because in the review powerpoint, Mr. Schick added peoples powerpoint. They were private so we couldn't see their projects. I am happy he changed the test to Friday, That gives us 2 more nights to study. Today we also finished watching the other projects and took notes. Now I have to study for the test!!!!

Tuesday

Today in class we studied for tomorrows test. Mr Schick wasn't here today. Delany, Megan, Ella and I made a study guid. We wrote down all the information on the powerpoint. We then quizzed each other on the leaders and their type of government. Todays class made me more prepared for the test. Tonight I will study and hope that I get a good grade.

Monday

Today in class we watched the presentations. Since we had a one hour delay our class was cut short. So not everyone got to share. We still have two more projects to watch. One group started their project but did not finish. Tomorrow we will finish those and review for our test on Wednesday. Today we watched the projects on Germany, US, Russia, and Syria. I think our test is going to be all the presentations. All the facts about the president and the country's type of government. I am a little nervous about the test. 

Friday

Today in class I presented the project. Me and Ella are partners but she was not in class today due to the high school musical play. I was a little nervous about sharing by myself. So Mr. Schick asked one of the shadows if he would get up and help me present. He said sure. Wednesday we started sharing our project but the bell rang. We got to the first slide about government and how China is a communist country. Today I talked about Xi Jinping. I shared some facts about where and when he was born and what he did before becoming president of China. Also I shared that he has been president for 2 years and that all of Chinas presidents lead for 10 years. I then talk about how to get rid of a president. There are 3 ways to get rid of a president. Re elect, Impeach, and Assassination. Mr. Schick told us that it was wrong for people to hate and want to kill Obama or any president. He said that we should also put Assassination last because it is the worst. Then we went over the impeachment process. Lastly we talked about how many votes Xi jinxing got.

Wednesday

Today in class we started our presentations. The first project was on France. France has a republic government and a semi presidential system. This government was made in 1958. The President of France is Francois Hollande and the prime minister is Manuel Valls. They are apart of a Socialist Party. Hollande became president in 2012.  Valls was elected in 2014. It was then our turn to present. The country we chose was China. Our first slide was about Chinas government. China has a communist government. This means that Chinas government is greedy and the state controls economy. One example is that when you buy a car in America, the car dealership tells you the price of the car. In China the government makes up the price. Mr. Schick then got talking about how years ago they thought they had it good, Then once the internet was available, people realized that their government was greedy and controlling. We then ran out of time and couldn't finish our presentation.  Our next slides are about the President Xi Jinping. We don't have class tomorrow so we will finish Friday.

Tuesday

Today in class we went to cancer awareness tables. When I first got up there I saw the lungs. They were real pigs lungs. They had healthy lungs and not so healthy lungs. The lady stepped on something and it made the lungs pump. It was cool to see how lungs work. Then i got a pencil, pins, and stickers about breast cancer. My favorite part was when I put my head thru this machine. I could see all these dots on my face. Some dots meant that you had skin damage or your skin was oily or dry.

Monday

Today we had our long class. We went over the pop quiz we had about. Mr. Schick told us that we would see the questions again, possibly on the exams. We were supposed to share our slide shows, but most groups were not ready. I think my group was ready, but we just wanted to add more to make it better. We found some cool information on Xi JinPing. We found out that he got 99 percent of the votes and that 1 person voted against him. People were saying that they think it might have been a mistake or that the person was very brave. Also he will be serving for 10 years. Today was the last day to work on this project. Tomorrow we have class last mod. We will share our projects!
