               Today in class we did a power point on life expectancy and a whole lot of other stuff like that and apparently, Monday when we have him next we will go on to the CIA website and find the difference between the US and other countries I don’t know what we will do with this but it will probably turn into an essay in which we have to explain why we think the numbers are what they are and what factors made it like that. Other than that, we sat there and took notes but with Mr. Shick talking and explaining what things are he turned something that other teachers would have made a one day thing out of it he made it two days long and it helped a lot in my mind.

               Today we got our tests back and went over them. I got a ninety I was happy because I didn’t fail but I think I could do better but I still am happy I’m still happy though. We had shadows in class and they had to answer questions to I don’t know why but it’s Mr. Shick. So now I am typing my blog while Mr. Shick showed us pictures of his dogs and horses and one of their horses was a first responder to a terrorist attack in time square. He also talked about his dogs and how he got them and how they wake him up at five in the morning. But it was a long period especially since it was just the test and this.

today relay all we did was go over last night’s homework in a weird way. Mr. Shick asked us what we wrote about and it eventually turned into what we wanted to get as a job and eventually yoga. Three conversations lasted an entire hour, an hour of elaboration like when we went around the room and Mr. Shick asked every one if they knew what they wanted to be and many people knew what they wanted to do and a lot involved medical practice while me and a few others had ideas like visual editor and an umpire. Also somehow we got Mr. Shick to shave his mustache if we all get at least a 90 on the next test I real don’t know how but he said yes. It might happen but he might of already forgotten.

did you know 2016?

                              Today in class we watched a video about fact in 2016 and some facts that I found interesting where that in 2050 there will be 10 billon people in in the world because that means that in 34 years three billion people will be born all around the word that’s about 40% of the current world population in a few decades, that blew my mind that because it is just a huge number that you don’t expect to happen in such a short time. It feels like a disease it starts out slow and eventually gets out of control and multiplies at a rapid rate.

               Next is that 25% of people in India with the highest IQ’s outnumber the entire population in America sherry because they have that many more people than us and can do at home jobs just as good as we can if they can do their job remotely the company can give them less money than they can American workers and such there is so much more of them they are a lot easier to find than an American work that is as capable as the person in India.

               Last is the fact that we are training people to do things that don’t exist. To use things that haven’t been invented it’s crazy you don’t know what it is how can you know how to teach it what it is or how it works. Nobody ever thought that hey I’m going to teach my kids how to drive 5 or 10 years before cars were invented so how are they doing it is time travel a thing or are they taking the predictions of something like a self-driving car and teaching these kids how that works and what needs to be done to prefect it or are they just wildly guessing about hey tomorrow a self-flying plane is going to be made and given to the public this is how it works and then they ramble on about something that doesn’t exist

we did not have class today

9/14/16

               Today in class we had a review for our test which is next class. Mr. Shick let a student be the “teacher” today and she went over the power point we have been working on for the past week. We went over a message to Garcia and it not so hidden method to encourage people with Rowan taking the message to him without question and its very bold way of saying don’t be lazy. Next we went over the Greek words we looked up the main three being agora, polis, and idiot all having to do with the new at the time democracy. Agora was the meeting place that the votes were held in. The polis was the group of people who took place in the vote. Finally an idiot was someone who doesn’t take part in social activity like voting. Next was Socrates, his teachings, the Socratic method, and his eventual death.

Today in class we finished the Socrates notes that included his death and his teachings. The way he died was through his actions during his teachings he broke two laws he did not believe in the gods that his city did and he encouraged youth to look at things differently than they were thought. In his trial he fought with the words I have done these things but it was my duty and job to make people think differently. He ended up being guilty and was sentenced to death but it was a very close vote. He also was given the chance to escape and he chose to not escape and drank the poison to kill him. That poison killed him over an hour it was painful and long but he drank it and killed himself.

            Today in class we finished the notes from Thursday. We also had a discussion in which Mr. Shick just instigated the entire thing by not stating his opinion and just finding flaws in the thing the person said and turning that into a question. This is also what Socrates did to young workers just outside of the agora. This eventually led to the scientific method which is as follows problem, hypothesis, experiment, observe, results. It can be different from person to person though. Socrates also was a stonemason, wrestler, and warrior when he was younger. He fought heroically in war. Around this time the democracy in Grease formed allowing males who were born in Athens vote on things. but it was very different then we do it every single person voting one at a time would stand at a podium and give their stance on the matter and why they thought that way to try to persuade others into voting with them.

today in class

today i was not in class due to a doctor appointment

Today in class we went over what we did in the past week and a half from a message to Garcia and it’s not so hidden message to never question what you are told in a job and to be like Rowan the mysterious that takes a message to Garcia without question, to the word for a Greek meeting place agora where there where shops merchants and people from everywhere teaching skills to whoever wanted them. They would hold votes here when Grease started the first Democracy where the men would vote on every little thing that was questionable due to the small number of men who could vote where today we meet every one or two years to reelect someone into office. Mr. Shick is back now and for the two days I have had him he is funny and cool. I think the rest of the year will be great.
