Week 13, Class 2

Today is very fun, we don't have any team teachings, so it is awesome!

1. Today is supposed to be a "field trip" day, but the school canceled it, so we had normal classes. For History class, Mr. Rick comes on time for classes, wow! It has been 2 days in a row that he came so early, but anyways, he came early, so it is good. *woo hoo*

So, at the start of class, he did his usual stuff like he always did, he checked who would be the teacher to teach the team, and, surprisingly, there was no one teaching the team, so we end up with a longer lecture for the day and we supposed to give him an infraction if he does that, but we don't. Anyways, let's get back on track!

Then, the class starts with a lecture of "Napoleon, first European?" This is what it looks like:


While Mr. Rick is lecturing the whole class, everyone take notes on their laptop, and this is what it looks like:


Well, maybe they are not taking notes there, because the photographer in the team took a picture at part 3 of class which is still the lecture, but after he is done with the lecture, we can do the activity. *yay!*

2. During the lecture, Mr. Rick lectured us about this:

By 1799, France was at the point of collapse, and had been soundly beaten by their enemies. Napoleon was the only one who could save France, so he tried to save France. France was already beaten by the British in the sea war, so there is no point of trying to beat them up physically. Luckily Napoleon was there to save France, and with his brainiac brain, he suggested that the French is supposed to break their economy, and they did! *woo hoo! Go Napoleon Bonaparte!*

By 1810, Napoleon made France the most important country all over Europe! Isn't that amazing? Then, the Romans controlled much territory. The Romans are very smart, they were the ones who invented tiles, roads, central system (where you control heat and cold air in that place) So, there would be people, usually the slaves to pump the pumper so that the heat will travel through the pipes, and it sounds cool, but anyways, let's get back on track! The Romans invented many more things. They were awesome! 

 So, the French tried to improve themselves by using a tactic which is quite smart, they are willing to do the commonwealth, and this was a very good idea, Commonwealth is an international association consisting of the UK and the British.

3. After the lecture is done, we don't have any LDLs or team teachings, so it is quite good for the whole class, and we thought that we are going to have tech time, which is kind of a free time for the Historians, but we have part 3 of class and it is something to do with research, first Mr. Rick shows us lots of maps, and these are the maps that he showed us. 





Then, there are a few questions for us to answer, and this is what it looks like:


And, we have to answer them together as a team, so we did it in google docs! This is what it looks like:


4. On what we can do better next time is to make every single one of the team to work together. (Kris didn't work on this at all). We also have to have the courage to do stuff.
