Today we started typing the essay and i already made a plan so i followed it and i finished the introductiona and the 1st religon paragraph, although i was talking a little and fooling around i provided some good work at the end of the lesson, when i looked at the cars i did some changes and instead of writting a list of gods i only wrote the 2 most importaant gods in ancient rome and those were Jupiter and Juno. I' m most definatly going to sit by myself because i need to do alot of work and if i sit next to my friends then that gets me to fool around so i will be reminding myself not to sit next to my friends and maybe then i can produce a great essay. =)

Today i contunued planning but i didnt finish i finished the religon and the intro and half of the governement, i will be doing work at home but before we go there the things i want to write about government are:
1) What are senates, consuls, assembelys? How come women were not allowed to do any of these and what do they do as a society.
2) How was the government in ancient rome ? did it change? If so how and when? Did the government ever get corrupted? When? and much more


So as i was saying i will be finishing this at home because next lesson we will be going to the lab to staart typing this up and the last thing i want to do is to be left behind because if i am not on time then there will be a serious problem, but the amount of work that i had produced in the library and the multimedia lab i tthink i have done great and useful work that i will also include in the essay... i think i did much better this lesson and i am hopeing to be like thios everyday!!! :D

Today all the pressure has come.... now i have to do an essay about ancient rome, so today we started planning and ordering the paragraphs choosing which card goes were. So i decided to make an intro, 2 paragraphs about religon, 2 about government, 2 about jobs and finally aa conclusion. I started the introduction and i am fixing the cards to put them in the right places which formed 2 simple good paragraphs, the paragraphs will be about:
1) I will talk about the gods and how, were and when they warshiped them
2) I will talk about how prisoners had to be forced to follow the roman religon and how they get treated if they dont.

However i did fool around a little and i am very dissapponted so i am going to be serious next lesson because this is very important. Next class i will finish the planning hopefully without fooling around in class :).

Today i think i used my time wisely because i did the most work and did not fool around at all I focused the most on government and i finised alot today. i was trying to find the most information about republic government in rome and i got some down but i got alot on how they use there props and trading and etc. one of the questions i did was "how did they use trading to affect social clases?" i found the most information by looking at one of the encyclopedias and i forgot to add the link so i will be finding it hopefully to make by bibliography better. this site includied alot of information about trading which gave me tons and tons of information but however it is in a higher leven language so i needed to find the defonitions to each and every word tha i didnt get but overall i found alot of information and i didnt read all the information because there was no time so i am gong to try to do work at home.

April 21st 2009

Today in the lab I didnt foll around at all, and i feel i did the best and most work on ancient roman jobs, government and religon i found about 5 questions for each topic. I was mainly working on government because i didnt find alot of information. i used the same site i used last time and it is called:
http://www.hadrians.com/rome/romans/work/roman_slaves_work.htm
most of the information i found was about girls and how they are treated, an example of one of the questins were:
Did girls get treated the same way as guys? the answer was:
no girls get treated better for many reasons because back then they thought that girls were all sisters and that had a relation to the royale family so it was a crime to make girls slaves and the guys that were slaves were either bad romans or greek prisoners.
this is a goodd site to work on because it helped me alot, and it ws easyer to find the information because it was in the same paragraph which made it fast and easyer. I did very well this lesson and i am willing to do better on the essay!

April 20th 2009

Today in the lab I did the best and most work on ancient roman job. I was mainly working in the end of the class because i calmed down. I did the most work and focused the mot on the category ‘Variety of Jobs’. In particular, I was trying to find the most information about slavery questions, "Was it hard getting a slave?" and etc. i found the most information on a site called:
http://www.hadrians.com/rome/romans/work/roman_slaves_work.htm
I found alot of information about slavery and what they are expected to do and if there were any slaves that were girls and people who treat their slaves bad or good. So this is a fairly good site to work on because it helped me alot, but it was hard to find this information because it was scattered out on the whole page. Unfortunately i couldn't find anymore information, and in the beginning of this class i didn't do alot of work which upsets me and i think that i will be sitting away from my friends tomorrow to make a better and better effort and academic grade for this essay because it is very important.

April 19th 2009

Today in the lab I continued my research into ancient Rome. I was mainly working on the characteristic, ‘Variety of Jobs’. In particular, I was trying to find the most information about the question, "How many choices of jobs were there, Did it relate to social classes?" This is a good question because job are very important, they can be very helpful in now and olden times. I found some very good information from a website called :
http://www.mariamilani.com/ancient_rome/ancient_roman_jobs.htm
dealing with the fact that there is a limit i still need to keep looking for more sites because i dont have much time to finish this. The essay will be done very soon and i need to puch myself even more to get as much information as possible,so far i have been doing good with the bibliography noticing that the amount of sites gets bigger and bigger each day. Hopefully i will work my best next class!
