Today in class, we discussed the different countries of the world and the wars involving them. It was important to learn about this because not every kid knows how other countries including us have been effected by nuclear bombs, and terror threats. For example, I didn't know that we bombed Japan to put an end to World War 2. Was that the best approach we could come to conclusion to make in order to resolve the fight? Probably not considering that it killed thousands of people who were innocent, instantly. I mean it did give them a scare and make them surrender but we could have thought of a better way. Now we are probably seen as the country who could just bomb you any time. And it's good to have control, but we should be the country that all the other countries want to become. To many, we probably are, but I can't say much because I still need to learn more about those countries in order to make a logical statement. I look forward to learning more on the topic Mr. Schick!
In human geography class today, we finished dividing our regions by the various similarities they shared. My group also noticed a mistake we had been making and fixed it. That was that we weren't exactly dividing the regions to their correct category. For example, when we compared the different maps of presidential votes, we mistakenly put a few states together that weren't always 100% together. Some might have gone democratic one year while the others might have gone republic. I also hadn't picked up that we could divide them up based on weather/temperature. This caught my eye on a few states that were out of place as well. This changes things! This is what also divides us into different cultures. Culture is what makes up a specific region or group of people based on customary beliefs, material traits, and social forms. With the knowledge of the different regions and why they are in that region, it can help us to define what kinds of people may live there. This is what I g...
