Class Discussion

Today in class, we took notes for our quiz that we will be taking tomorrow, May 18th. The quiz will be on the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire. But the thing that I am mostly studying is the Essay Question. It will be about the difference between the Roman Republic and The Roman Empire.

Class Discussion

Today in class, for the first time in the entire school year, we took notes on paper! (Laughing)! We took notes on The Roman Empire. The Roman Empire used to be called the Roman Republic. It changed by the year 14 after Octavian who later became known as Augustus. He changed his name because Augustus meant the great and Octavian earned his greatness.

Class Discussion

Today in class we discussed the Greece test that we took about a week ago. I did well on the test and ended up getting an 80%. The test was very fair and somewhat easy. Some of the questions on that quiz will be on the final Exam which is about 3 weeks from now!

Today in class we started working on our class projects that are about Mr. Schick's rap with our partners. We were assigned a paragraph in the rap and research different topics in the rap. My partner is Taylor and her main job is to find information and give the information to me so I can type it on our PowerPoint, as well as the information that I collect. I am the designer in the group and my job is to make the PowerPoint look great. Today we started off researching Julius Caesar and sofar the PowerPoint looks great and the information that Taylor gave me was right on point. We will continue to make progress on our project and work hard to achieve an A!

 Today in class we went over all the answers to the homework in class. Mr. Wojo he thinks we should wear a jump suit for uniform! He also showed us a flag that helped us remember the story of the two twin brothers that were fed by wolves.( it was a flag of two pwoplw milking a cow but it looked like to people were drinking from the cow) We had a pop quiz in class. It wasn't bad. It was easy.
Homework!

Consul: The two officials of Rome instead of a king

Veto: Overrule; "I forbid" 

Senate: aristocratic branch of Rome's government

Assembly: The democratic side of Roman government 

Dictator: A leader who had absolute power to make laws and command the army

Mercenaries: Soldiers who fight in any country's army for pay

SPQR: the letters on the Roman coins meaning Senatus Populusque Romanus- the senate and the Roman people

Twelve Tables: 12 laws that established the idea that all free citizens had a right to the protection of the law; helped to settle the conflict between patricians and plebeians 

Cincinnatus: The Roman ideal of a dictator is shown in this STORY- In 458 B.C, when Rome's armies were in peril, the senate named Cincinnatus dictator. He was plowing his four-acre farm when messengers brought him the news. He left his plow, defeated Rome's enemies, and stepped down as dictator in 15 days. He then returned to his farm to plow. 

Gauls: people from the Po River Valley, north of the Apennines; they sacked Rome leaving it in ruins

Pyrrhus: A king in western Greece

Carthage: The former Phoenician colony; near the midpoint of the Mediterranean Sea; had a huge navy of 500 ships and trade made them a very wealthy city 

Monarchy: government by king

Aristocracy: government by nobles

Democracy: government by the people


Questions and Answers:
1. a.Why were many plebeians dissatisfied with Rome's government in the early years of the republic?

In 509 B.C the Roman's drove out their Kings and patricians. Plebeians were barred by law from holding most important positions in government; commanding armies, serving as high priest, or holding high offices. 

b. How did they win reforms?
 The plebeians won a greater share of political power between 494 and 287 B.C. Thousands of plebeians refused to fight in the Roman army unless patricians agreed to certain reforms. 

c. What changes did they bring about in Roman government?

The plebeians gained higher political positions and more favorable laws. Marriage between the two groups was allowed and enslavement by debt was ended so they created a written law code called Twelve Tables.
  

2.Why did Romans consider that they had a balanced government?

The Romans meant that their government was partly a monarchy, partly an aristocracy, and partly a democracy. They believed that this gave them the best features of all kinds of governments.  

3. Once Rome had conquered most of Italy, how did the Roman government win the support of the conquered people?

Different parts of the Italy's conquered territory were subjected to different laws and treatment from Rome. 

4. a. At the start of the Punic Wars, why might Carthage have appeared stronger power?

Carthage had a population of 250,000 which was 3 times the size of Rome and they had a huge navy of 500 ships.

b.Why was Rome, in fact, the victor?

•   Rome could draw on a reserve of more than 500,000 troops made available through its conquests in Italy.
•  Rome's citizen troops were generally more loyal and reliable than the mercenaries employed by Carthage.
• Warfare was Roman specialty.  

5. Why was the Battle of Zama a major turning point in history?

If Hannibal had been the victorious, Carthage would have become the greatest empire in the world, not Rome. Since Rome was victorious, they passed on its laws, its government, and its culture to Western Civilization. 

6. a.Why did the Greeks at first welcome Roman armies?
 Roman armies marching into Macedon looked like protectors of Greek freedom. The Greeks rejoiced in 197 B.C when the Roman's freed them from the rule of Philip V of Macedon.  

b. Why did the Greek attitude change?

 The Romans interfered in Greek politics, and they crashed all opposition to rulers favored by Rome. The hardwork of Roman power in the east became increasingly ruthless. A few Greek city-states tried to free themselves from Rome's hard life.  

Rome... Class Discussion!

Today in class we had to read a short story/discription of Rome called The Roman Republic. This description tells us about Romes economy, clothing and other interesting facts about Rome. After we finished reading, we had to define words , identify cities, and answer question about the text.
Define: Republic- a political unit that is not ruled by a monarch and in which citizens with the right to vote choose there leaders.
Gravitas- weightiness or seriousness
Toga- the type of clothing the Romans wore. It was worn in the summer and winter and it was very uncomfortable and clumsy.
Patrician- they were special privileged families
Plebeian- the common farmers, artisans and merchants
Pater Familias- 'the father of the family"
Legion- a massive military unit
Identify:
Italy- which is shaped like a high heeled boot. The Italian peninsula is near the midpoint of the Mediterranean. The land is very mountainous and the country was rolling, wooded, fertile
Rome- it's midway in the Alps and Italy's southern tip. Rom occupies an ideal position from which to send out ships and armies in all directions. Romulus was part of an ancient Roman myth. He was the one who stated Rome after he struck his brother and killed him
Palatine Hill- the hill that Romulus chose for his new city. After he killed his brother, Palatine Hill became Athens
Alps- the Alps are located on the Eastern side of Rome
Tiber River- a river that the king put Romulus and his brother Remus in when they were just babies because he feared they would become to powerful
Questions:
#1: Geography was important to Rome because Italy is right in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, so  it was used as a trading place. It was also right on the shore and that was important because they could then see oncoming threats from the sea against them.
#2 These groups were important to Roman Development because;
-Latins just wandered throughout Rome. They lived simple lives and wasn't considered a city.
- Greeks established 50 colonies on the southern part of Italy.
-The Etruscans were civilized people and had their own writing system.
#3 Rome was once ruled by a king in which no people had power to vote for him until the government gave them there rights to vote for a leader.
#4 Roman households very were well kept and was respected by everyone in the family. The fathers were the most respected in the family and the women were in charge of the daily things and making food.
#5 Roman army effected society because all men were required to join the army.

Class Discussion Blog 12

Today in class, we took our test on the aincient Greek civilization. The test was fair and some what easy. I believe that I past the test and with an 80 or above. The test consist of many questions about Sparta, wars, art, and Philosophers. The one part of the test that I know I passed was about Sparta (Laughing). I was very familiar with everything that was on the test and I am very confident that I passed.

Class Discussion~Plato

Plato was an influential ancient Greek philosopher who was born in the year 427 BC in Athens, Greece. He was the son of wealthy Athenian parents and he began his philosophical career as a student of Socrates. After his father’s death, his mother married a friend of PericlesPlato was one of the most famous, respected, and influential philosophers of all time. We know the Greek philosopher Socrates mostly through Plato's dialogues. Plato was after Socrates and learned from his teachings.  It is because of Plato that we are most familiar with Socrates' philosophy because Plato wrote dialogues that his teacher took part. Plato later began to develop his own philosophy and the Socrates of the later dialogues does more teaching than he does questioning.
He thought that everything had a sort of ideal form, like the idea of a chair, and then an actual chair was a sort of poor imitation of the ideal chair that exists only in your mind. One of the ways Plato tried to explain his ideas was with the famous metaphor of the cave. He said, Suppose there is a cave, and inside the cave there are some men chained up to a wall, so that they can only see the back wall of the cave and nothing else. These men can't see anything outside of the cave, or even see each other clearly, but they can see shadows of what is going on outside the cave. Wouldn't these prisoners come to think that the shadows were real, and that was what things really looked like?

Class Discusson~ Week 11 Blog

Once again I did not have my computer so I was not able to post anything on my blog at the time but I hope that you will accepts this and have it in as on time.
Thank You!
Today we finished talking about Alexander the great and how he overcame every one of his fears. Alexander never lost a fight through out his career. His horse died in a terrible, bloody war in India. They won that battle but the entire army was hurt by Busefilis' death. Busefilis was a great horse that had only been tamed by one person and that was Alexander. Alexander was so petrified by his death that he named a whole city after Busefilis.

Class Discussion ~ for Blog 10 of Last Week!

Mr. Schick, I have not had my computer since last thursday but I have been taking notes on paper. For Blog 10 of last week, we watched a movie called Alexander the Great and we continued with other peoples projects earlier in the week. Alexander was a a young boy who became known as the great one because he was able to tame a wild horse name Busefalis and he never lost a war during his time as King. He was known for his heroic acts and bravery as a leader in the war.

Class Discussion

Today in class, I started to present my project on Spartan Life. So far it as been a great and entertaining project because of the harsh actions in which the Spartans did. I will continue to present my project on wednsday 4/6.

The Greeks- Project

Today in class we discussed the quiz we took on Greece. We were also assigned a topic to research for a project. My topic is Spartan Life and I have to talk about how kids were raised in Sparta and what peoples lives were like. Given that I already know allot about my topic, this project should fairly easy but well done.

The Greeks

Hespasia was a Greek prostitute b ut she was beautiful and unique. She was known to be great at her proffession and was known as egual to all people.
The Athenians gathered at a so called stage to watch plays, games and to hear storied about Greek trajedies.
Agamemdon was murdered by his wife.Oedepis poked out his eyes after he married his own mother. He solved the riddle of the phyx. Its the riddle of how u walk in 3 stages of your life. Hubris is the fatal flaw which was being to big, proud and think you know eveything. Paraklees wanted to have war with Sparta and by suprise, he announces this decision to his people at a meeting. The Athenians never backed down from a fight. But they knew that it was  not going to be easy.

The Greeks

Reading and writing was a rare skill. Life expectancy for the Athenians was 15%. The country was in the hand of a few people. They didn't have any part of anything and had no freedom. Mainline Greece had no river and it was nothing but mountains. It was divided into city states. They had there on beliefs and were ruled by different people. There was 1 military state that had military power. The city was Sparta. There lives was nothing but war and they went into training at about age 6. Spartans were willing to die because death was nothing compared to eating their food. One thing that was sacred to the Greeks were their stories. Bons were people who went around telling stories Greek life. The two story were the Iliad and the Odyssey. They tel about mighty battles and Hero of theur days. They are written in poems called epics. A tyrants seezes contoll over a city. Posiden was like the patriot god of Athens, Athena. Pisistratis was Clethinees' brother in law. He was looking to pass on to his son so he had to look for alies to help protect his city. Olives were a very important economic comodity in Geece.It was used forn oil and it was traded. The vas was Athens first artistic invention and what was inside the pot, was much more important than the pot itself. In 527 bc Pisitratis died and his son Hipias took over. In 514 bc his brother was murderd. Then Hipias went crazy. He killed the murderers and assulted their wives as well. He thought everybody was trying to get him but they weren't. Clethinees went to try to take over his city. Hipias was captured and kicked out of Athens forever and couldn't come back through the city ever again. Clethinees then became the most powerful leader in Athens.

The Greeks

508 B.C. in Athens people turned on their rulers demanding freedom.One man looked on named Clystinies, he saw regular people shaking their destinies and governing themselves. Athens was right in the middle of the mediterranean. Reading and writing was a rare skill and people only lived to be 15 years old. Athenians were ruled by aristicrats. Athens didnt have the unity that other civilizations had through out the world. Greece split into a bunch of tiny nations called city-states. One city-state seemed to have all the power called Sparta. People were brought up to be warriors. They had taken control of all the land around them in Clystinies time. The stories  inspired Clystinies and his people. Athena was like a Goddess. Olive trees allow people to have cooking oil and olives and the Athenian olive was the best there was anywhere at the time. Hipias ruled just like his father. Historians tell us that Hipias's brother was murdered.
Crucivles were used to forage metal. It was used to work with really hot metals.

The "Kool" " Kats" of Egypt! :)

                 Animal worship in ancient Egypt was part of the culture of the daily life of Egyptians. All animals were respected as they were in close contact with deities and gods that they couldn't reach. The cat of ancient Egypt or the Miv was a sacred respected beast. The cat was first domesticated in ancient Egypt 4,000 thousand years ago. There are wild felines around the banks of Egypt, but it wasn't until around 2000 BCE that domesticated cats were brought into the houses of Egyptians. During the New Kingdom (1540 to 1069 BC), there were many tombs that started showing cats as part of everyday life. The ancient Egyptians took their cats on hunting excursions instead of dogs because they believed that the cats were alot more powerful than dogs. They believed that cats had been trained to find fowl and fish. Children had become known in their family as Mit or Miut, showing great affection not only for the child but for the cats also. Statues of cats were placed outside the house to protect the inhabitants and to ward off evil spirits. After this action, many scientists believed that cats had become an integral part of the ancient Egyptian family life.
                They first felin diety, somtime depicted as a lynx is a Mafdet. But the most famous cat goddesses in the world, first revered by the ancient Egyptians were Bastet (also known as Bast, Pasch, Ubasti) and the lion-headed Sekhmet. Bastet had the roles of fertility, protector of children and the protector of all cats. Bastet became so popular that she became a household goddess. This goddess was called Bastet when in full cat form, and Bast when only having the head of one and the body of a beautiful woman.In Bubastis, or Tell Basta, the cats lived a lavish life as the `embodiment' of Bastet in her temples. Here they were served upon and taken care of until they passed away, and  their bodies were mummified and given as offerings to Bastet.

Papua New Guinie Essay

Kamau Stokes

Febuary 10,2011

Western Civ. Test

                              Jared Diamond's theory of geographic luck was certainly true according to the evidence in the move. Jared Diamond stated that many civilizations are huge and are doing well because of the natural resources and domestice animals they had to grow their population. Many civilization didn't eat healthy, did't have enough food and didn't have animals to help them farm. Those people had to farm and plow all by themselves and had to keep moving everytime they fell into a slump with their enviornment. New Guinie struggled with many things and one of the hardest things were making tools for farming. They were not able to support their metal workers with food to trade for tools to farm because of the shortage of crops and animals.

                             

                              Jared Diamond mentioned an area in the middle east called the fertile cresent. The fertile cresent was known to be the worlds first real civilization, where we transitioned from from being animals to real humans. People in the fertile cresent made the worlds first grannery and started caring about their health. The people of the fertile land later reached egypt and made the civilization huge and they were able to feed everyday and later were forced to build pyramids, and the same thing for Europe. Farming wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the people of the fertile cresent spreading their farming actions with the world.

                              

                              There are 14 animals that helped many people farm and make life easier. The 14 domestic animals are  goatees, sheep, pigs, calf's, horses, donkeys, 2 kinds of camels, lamas, rain deer, yaks, mithans, water buffalo, and bali cattle. All of these animals helped in many ways such as farming, drinking and supplying meat and clothes for them during the winter.

• Only 125,000 internet users out of their 6 million population
• 54,000 people living with AIDS
• 125th in the world for electricity income
• .49% of their land is arable 

Class notes

Understanding how fire worker was the way we learned about steel and how to create things with steel. Because of the shortage of crops in Nu Ginni, they were not able to supply metal workers with food and trade them for tools to farm. Because of the dry climate, people of the fertile cresent abandon their homes. You don't want to exploit the environment. An two places that have the same longitude and latitude have the same climate, physical features and vegetation. Once the people of the fertile land reached Egypt, the made the civilization huge and they were able to feed everyday and later were forced to build pyramids, and the same thing for Europe. Farming wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the people of the fertile cresent spreading their farming actions with the world..

Animals

Domestic animals... goatees, sheep, pigs, calf's, horses, donkeys, 2 kinds of camels, lamas, rain deer, yaks, mithans, water buffalo, and bali cattle. 13 animals are from northern africa and asia. One of these animals are from south america. The people in Nu Ginni didnt get the right animals to domesticate, so they are having sa harder time than any other country. After these 4 animals came from the middle east. The area was called the firtile cresent. It was one of the larger crop growing civilazation in the world because of these animals.

Today we discussed the following in class. There are many animals that can help farm an area but all of these animals are only in crtain places.

Life In The Open

                             

                            Life in the open is hard for many people in different countries. From the forest of Nu Ginni to the middle east many people don't have the crops and proper storage for food. They have learned how to survive with the things surrounding them. Many small villages have people called hunter gatherers and they bust their butts to get up everyday and search for eatable food for themselves and their village in order to survive. Whereas people like us don't have to find food because it is already there for us. In the rain forest of Nu Ginni, they have a tree called wild Sago and in that tree the people of Nu Ginni found out that they could make eatable dough out of the inside of the tree. In some parts of the world a better food source than Sago is Barley and Wheat because of the nutrition. After the Ice Age many of these people had to migrate to different land because the food supply had gone down in the middle east. Nu Ginni had the hardest time of all because when you are growing Sago you have to plant 1 at a time instead of just throwing seeds into the ground, watering them then just watching them grow allot.

                           

                             About 11 thousand years ago there used to be a small village that was found berried under Draa, which is an area located near the Dead Sea, where scientist found which looked to be the worlds first granary. The granary that was created was to store food and protect the food from animals, and minerals that might be blown in from the wind. That is when we first really started being human beings rather than just humans who didn't care what was on our food and where we laid it or trying to figure out where to store the food they have left over. Sooner or later some of the people found out that in some places they could control the growth of their crops. They realized that they didn't need to keep hunting for food and constantly move in order to find what they needed to survive.

                             They first farmers in the world were from the middle east. The second farmers were from China were they inherited the growth of corn. Then Africa came into the picture, growing many different crops for food.



Class Discussions

Hunter Gatherers- You wake up every morning and hunt or search for eatable food to survive.
Wild Sago- One of the most famous source of food in the world. There were barley and wheat which is far more nutritious than sago. Many in the middle east had to migrate to other land in order to find food because of the ice age in the middle east.
Draa' is another name for an area by the Dead Sea. They area looked to be an old village 11 and 1/2 thousand years ago. The village had what you can call the worlds first granary. That is when we first really started being human beings instead of not caring about were you put your food and how to make storage for your food. They finally found out that they could plant and control they growth of food for themselves. They realized that they didn't need to hunt and constantly move from place to place in search of food.
They first farmers in the world were from the middle east and they were changing the growth of food without realizing it. China was the second generation of farming and they grew corn. Africa was next and they farmed many different crops. Spiders are can help supplement your diet. Many people can not store food for a long time, so there is allot more work than everybody else. For example, everybody else can throw down seeds and watch their crops grow but for the people in Nu Ginni have to plant 1 by 1 because of the crops they have. Some countries don;t have domesticated plants so they have to be careful about what they eat and they crops they store.

A Have & A Have Not

Many people can be split up into A HAVE  & A HAVE NOT. I am a have because I am supplied with all the resources I need to survive in the world. Many people in foreign countries are struggling but they do what they have to do in order for them to live. They have been taught to make a shelter for themselves in certain areas and make food for themselves. They don't know how to do the things that we can do and that doesn't mean that they aren't as smart as us. If we were in their position, we wouldn't know what to do because we haven't been taught to do the thing that are essential to their everyday life.
