looking over test

Today in human geo we looked over the five major religions test , but for like the first fifteen minutes one student had to take the test so Mr. Schick let us do whatever. I tried to watch Netflix, but the connection was really bad so I tried to link the wifi to my phone and it worked a little bit better but was still really slow, so I just watched youtube. After the kid who didn't take his test finished, that's when we started to look over the actual test. I got a 38/50. I did a lot worse than I thought I did. I kept mixing up Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. I did pretty well with the Judaism and Christianity questions though. For the rest of class Mr. Schick just talked and that's why i'm doing my blog while he talks about random things till class ends.

5 religions quiz

Today in human geo we took the five major religions quiz that we've been working on for three days. Before the actual test Mr. Schick gave us ten minutes to review our notes and stuff. He also walked around with a basket filled with candy and stuff and he let us pick something out which was nice. I got one of those jolly rancher lollipops, it was pink lemonade flavored. Anyway, we also went over the slides about the religions as a class one more time as review. T study for this quiz I used Ryleigh's quizlet that she made and it kinda sort of helped. I definitely got the basic stuff covered on the test, but I'm almost positive I continually mixed up Hinduism and Buddhism. Luckily, it was all multiple choice and there were no writing portions of it.

5 major religions pt 2

So yesterday we talked about Christianity and Islam. Today we talked about Hinduism, Buddhism, and Judaism. Hinduism is the third largest practiced religion in the world, 1.1 billion. adherents. Tjey are referred as Hindus. They are mostly located in India and Nepal. Their holy book is called the vedas. Eternal truths revealed to ancient sages; composed in verse form (meant to be sung and easily memorized). Buddhism had 500 million - 1.5 billion adherents. They are called buddhist and a majority of them are located in southeast Asia, China, Nepal and Japan. The amount of buddhist in the US is 1.2 million. The founder is Siddahara Guantama. Judaism has 14-18 million adherents. They're called Jews. They're located in Israel and the US. The founder was Abraham. Their holy book is the Torah.

start of 5 major religions

In human geo today we started to talk about the five major religions. The most practice religion in the world is Christianity. The second most practiced is Islam. Around 2.2 billion people in the world are christians. They are located in Europe, the Americas, and southern Africa. The denominations of Christianity are: Catholic church, Eastern Orthodox church, Protestants (Lutherans, Methodists, Baptist, Anglicans, Presbyterians, Episcopalians, and many more. The founder of Christianity was Jesus Christ and Christianity is Abrahamic in origin). The holy book of the religion is called the Bible , especially the New Testament (gospels). Some of the beliefs are that Jesus is both human and divine- son of God; he led a virtuous life; was crucified, died, buried, and resurrected; he ascended into heaven where he reigns with God the Father. We also talked about the Islam religion, but I have enough words from just talking about the christianity one lol.

test day :))

So test day is here and we finally took the population pyramid/settlement test. All the questions on the test were multiple choice, which was nice because I don't like having to write short answers. Mr. Schick gave us ten minutes in the beginning of class to study which was also very nice of him. I just looked over my notes in my composition and re watched the population pyramid video. When I got the test I was able to answer most questions without any doubt, but for sure on some of them their was hesitation. I did my best to make good guesses though, if I really had no idea on one, which was only on like three problems. Overall I think I probably got a high B on that test and I feel pretty good about it.

test review pt 2

Today in human geo we finished doing the second half of reviewing for the test on Monday. We re watched the Ted-ed video on population pyramids as a class. I pretty much understand most of the population pyramid stuff and I think i'll do okay on the test. Mr. Schick let us watch jeopardy again, which was really fun.

Test Review pt 1

Today in human geo Mr. Schick was talking about the parent teacher conferences and how he would talk to the parents and stuff. My mom asked me if I wanted her to come and talk to any of my teachers and I told her not really and surprisingly she agreed. I think it was because she was approving of my grades for the first quarter so she didn't really care as much. Anyway for test reviewing, Mr. Schick pulled up the one google slide presentation with all of the population and settlement information that we first started with in the beginning of this unit. We just went through each one and told us what we would have to know for the test. We're also gonna review the population pyramid stuff tomorrow, but Mr. Schick wanted to give us blog time.
