10/31

Today in human geo we watched another video called 'Hans Rosling : 200 years in 4 min'. It was a guy talking about how different nations/countries have grown industrial wise throughout the years.
-he teaches global health
-animating the data in real space
-in 1810 life expectancy was below 40
-china and the south African nations struggled to join the industrial revolution for a while
we drew a chart that showed life expectancy and the GDP

population pyramid discussion

Today in human geo we watched the population pyramid video again but as a class. We pretty much just talked about how the population pyramids are set up and how the different countries pyramids will increase or decrease over time. The population pyramids are set up by gender. Men are located on the left and women are on the right. Young people are located on the bottom of the population pyramid and older people are located on the top.

population test review

So today in human geo since two other students hadn't taken the population and settlement test we had to wait for them to take them so we could review the test as a class. In the meantime, Mr. Schick had us watch one of those TED- ED videos and it was on population pyramids. After we watched the video, there was website called PopulationPyramid.net and on it was basically just a bunch of statistics of different countries in different years populations and their growth or decrease throughout time. He said we could just mess around with it and look at different things so i did that for a little while and then I picked Germany because why not, and i wanted to see how their population would be in a couple years and i kid you not every single year as it increased Germay's population dropped like a million per year. Mr. Schick said it was like that because not many people over there are having babies. Anyway after everyone had taken the test we finally could review them. I did pretty well and got a 90.

test dayy

So today in human geo we took our population and settlement test. To be honest I think I did pretty okay and I was stressing a lot while studying, but the test wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The world fact boom portion of the test was really easy and I was able to find information a lot quicker than before. I finished all twelve of the questions before the twenty minutes was up. As I said before I made a quizlet for the vocabulary terms and I think I got a majority of those right, maybe I mixed up one or two. On the very last page of the test there were two bonus questions and I had absolutely no idea what they were so I just didn't do them, but they were bonus so it's okay. So yeah I think I did okay on it but I guess i'll just have to wait and see when Mr. Schick finishes grading them and hands them back.

review for test

Today in human geo we pretty much just reviewed everything that we're gonna have to know for the test tomorrow. I think that if I study well enough tonight that  i'll be okay because I feel like I know most of the material, but I got to get better at using the CIA world fact book site because it took me a little bit too long when we were doing those questions in class the other day. Also, since the first part of the test were pretty much just doing that  and only being given twenty minutes, i'm definitely gonna work on finding my way around it a lot better tonight. For the vocabulary part I'll probably just make a quizlet because those help me out a lot especially for memorization and things like that.

going over world fact book questions/ random

Today in human geo class we reviewed the world fact book questions that we did in class yesterday. We didn't get through all of them but we went all the way up to number 18.  Mr. Schick had us read the answers aloud and then we discussed them. As I was answering the questions yesterday in class, it was pretty easy to find the answers, but some took more searching for than others. We really only did this in class today so I'm just gonna talk about my day. So today was Wednesday and the letter day was 'A' and I hate a days because I have patriot transitions and no offs which is especially annoying because I didn't get an off on the day before which was an h day. Luckily I have a good off tomorrow.  I feel like this week has been going by super slowly and i don't really know why. Halloween's coming up and it honestly doesn't feel like halloween at all like it has just felt like a really long September. We moved seats in my math class and I definitely feel like I can focus more.
