Reviewing the first test

-
Today we got our first test back I was pretty happy with my grade. The part I did the best on is the multiple choice and the essays I aced the multiple choice and only lost a couple points on the essay. I could have gotten a few more points if I spent a little longer studying. What I struggled with the most was what the gathering place was for the Ancient Greeks and I could not figure out what the name of the tallest mountain in Alaska was it was only for extra credit. The average score for the class was 86.4 five people voted guilty for the essay and sixteen people wrote not guilty I thought the average score was pretty good it was a high B. The format of the test was not to bad and I think if a took another test in this format I would do better because I know what it would look like and I would study a little harder.

Today we watched more of the video guns germs and steel. It talked about how the Papa New Guineans gather and hunt food. The women are the gatherers and the men are the hunters the way the men hunt is with stone age weapons such as wooden bows with stone tips and sharpened wooden sticks as spears. The way the women gathered food is by chopping down a tree and striping it to the core, processing it and cooking it. They also could go out and make a shelter with nothing but their hands in a half an hour.
