Today in Human Geography we had a test on maps. We had to study and learn on Central America and South America. I feel like I did a really good job because when I had extra time after my biology test we were allowed to work on something quietly and I started to study the countries. I was a little nervous before the test and before I studied but it was actually quite easy and I feel like I got like an 90% or higher on it. I thought Mr. Schick was crazy on making us study these and making us taking a test but it was really easy and with some studying I feel really good about it.

Situation

Today in Human Geography we talked about situation and how it is the location of a place relative to other places. Many locations are important because they are accessible to other places. Mr. Schick asked us how would we tell someone where John Carroll is if they were from like China or some place. Like if they have never lived in Maryland and they have just moved to Maryland and they want to know the directions to get to John Carroll. We would have to be specific and give them directions with a lot of details, because if they haven't lived here before or never have been here before you can't just say or it's like 15 minutes from Bel Air High School they wouldn't know where Bel Air High School is because they haven't been here before.

Today in Human Geography we did some note taking today about Areté and Socrates and those things. We had to look up somethings and learn about it. We talked about philosophy and Mr. Schick was talking about his dog, Stanley, and how his dog doesn't know that he is going to die someday. Which by the way made me very sad but it was true and we talked about when Mr. Schick was a young boy who one day thought about how he was thinking about thinking about thinking. But we mainly did a lot of note taking and learning about ancient Greece and how Scorates died. He was bing accused of "refusing to recognize the gods recognized by the state" and of "corrupting the youth" and if he was found guilty his penalty was death. He was then poisoned and died from the people who were in charge.

Today in Human Geography I saw a hornet in class and was scared, but Mr. Schick hung up 3 different maps in the front of the room and told us to make observations of them and we had to be specific. We spent like 10 or 15 minutes observing the maps and then after we started to talk about them and what we saw and what we noticed. Later Mr. Schick told us some stuff about what he knows about maps and he answered the questions that we all had. That's pretty much all we talked about and about 3 students had to take the test about the Message to Garcia  and Excellence.
