In today class we heard Mr. Schick complain about being old or something like that then show us his laugh after showing us the honors classes have a essay to do Then he let us studied for 5 minutes and I think I did pretty good on the test but I felt like I should've knew more answers on the test for example the animals I wish I knew all of them so I can get some extra credit points but at the end of the day I think I did good

So in class Mr. Schick hand out bread that was pretty good and was thinking about moving the class outside in the snow then was arguing that it was a light snow instead of a blizzard. Then he told us that we are going to have a test on Monday then we finish watching the video of Guns, Germs and Steel. The notes I took was Made steel from fire, New guians still used stone tools instead of mental tools, cut down trees and over farming can change environments causing deserts causing less water and barley any grass, when you have the same latitude basically will have the same climax so there wouldn't be a big difference of where you live at, American have 100 billions cows, Americans consumes 20 millions tons of wheat a year.
