12-11-14 Class

Review
Today we went over the test answers. I had a 76% mainly due to the fact that I kept confusing Islam and Hinduism. Mr.Schick got a little mad today because we wouldn't stop talking but we finally got it together. We went over the answers and he told us that since this was the hardest test for us, it is good that we took it recently so it's fresh in our minds.

Test
Today in class, we took a test. This test was by far the most difficult test Mr.Schick has given us. I had trouble remembering which religion did which and so on. I got a 76% which isn't terrible but definitely not at all what I want to get. Our class once again got the highest average grade, which was a 75%. The other classes averages' were not even passing grades. Luckily, I got a class full of kids who want to learn and enjoy learning. The best thing about our class, though, is that we get good grades all while joking around. We joke around in class and participate and have some silly answers but at the end of the day, we learn which is all that matters.

Final Religions
Today in class, we finished looking at the different religions. The religions we added today were Buddhism and Judaism. Something I found interesting was that Judaism has no certain founder. People believe it to be Abraham but no one is sure. We also took notes on Buddhism that were interesting. Buddhism has no single god to worship and nobody is sure how many followers Buddhism has. It ranges anywhere from 500 million to 1.5 billion with only 1.2 million in the U.S. I think I will be prepared for the test tomorrow.

Shickie McCoy
Today, class was a little different in the beginning. Mr.Schick came in the room and took attendance while John did his usual crying about something. Mr.Schick took a while talking to John so I put in my ear-buds and listened to some Elton John because hes the bomb. When John finally returned to his seat, Mr.Schick whipped out a guitar. Amabel played some strings and then Mr.Schick told us we were reviewing for "Slumdog Millionaire". He turned on a remix of a Bruno Mars song featuring Travie McCoy. His daughter sang while Mr.Schick rapped. The rapping was hilarious and fantastic, while the singing was majestic. I asked Mr.Schick if his daughter was attractive and got a laugh. Then we took some notes.

Notes
Today in class, we took notes. Mr.Schick entered the room looking very spiffy. Something was wrong with Mr.Schick's computer so he called someone down to fix it. After fixing it, we looked at some notes the class took Tuesday. We took a couple of notes and got into a discussion about religion because it infuriated Mr.Schick. We talked for a good long while about wars due to religion and whatnot and then took a few more notes and class ended.
