Tomorrow There be a Quiz


            Today in Western Civilization class we watched another video featuring John Greene. He is a really awesome guy and is almost as cool and good at teaching as Mr. Schick. It’s fun to be able to learn by watching videos and hearing jokes along the way. Mr. Schick said that he also liked us learning this way, because we actually pay attention to the video and that John’s information official, who corrects everything that might be wrong, is his old History teacher.
            Mr. Schick also announced to us today that we would have a quiz on Ancient Civilizations, Mesopotamia, and Egypt and what they discovered or how they helped us evolve our civilization today. The most important civilization was Egypt in my opinion, because it introduced many things including: a social class system, religion, and many new architectural advancements. Some of these included the pyramids and the Sphinx, which had its nose shot off by the Turks in later times. Egypt is one of the coolest places around to learn about advancements in everything from technology, to civilization, and even to new beliefs.
