Friday

Today in class I took my human geo test since I wasn't here yesterday. I felt like I did okay on it. Also today is the last day of the quarter and the last time ill be with this class. This semester I learned a lot and had a lot of fun throughout the year. Hopefully next semester ill have just as much fun. This weekend we have a long weekend and when we come back it will be semester 2. I hope I did good on this test today because its my last grade of the quarter. I hope everyone has a great semester 2 and everyone is successful also!

Thursday

Today I was absent from school because I am sick. I need to make up the test as soon as I get back!

Tuesday

Today we reviewed for the test. Im a little stressed because I have to study a lot for it if I want to be prepared by Friday. Hopefully I will do okay and my studying will pay off. I really need to get my grade up because its not the best grade I can get. Hopefully the extra credit form the pow wow can help me out too. This test is our last test before semester 2 and then it will be all over!! I am aiming for around 85%.

Christianity

Christianity is the world’s largest religion, that spreads throughout Europe, the Americas, and Southern Africa. Jesus Christ the founder of Christianity is believed to be both human and divine; son of god. Christians believe that Jesus was crucified, died, buried, and resurrected. They also believe that he led a virtuous life and ascended to heaven. Christianity was founded after the death of Jesus. After his death his followers spread the word about his teachings. 

Islam

Islam is the second largest religion. Muslims geographic location includes Indonesia, middle east, North Africa. Around 75- 90% are Sunnis and 10-20% are Shiites. Muhammad was the founder of Islam. (570-632 AD) Muslims believe that their purpose in life is to serve to Allah. Allah is their God they worship in their monotheistic religion. They also believe in 5 pillars, testimony, prayer, almsgiving, fasting, and pilgrimage. 

Hinduism

Hindus are mainly in the location of India and Nepal. With a following of 1.1 billion people.

Their holy book is the Vedas. The thing that separates Hinduism from any other religion is the fact that Hindus believe it’s more of a lifestyle rather than a religion. They believe in reincarnation and did not have a distinct founder. Although Hinduism is the 3^rdlargest religion most followers see it as a lifestyle and a way to live life rather than a belief. 

Buddhism

Buddhist are located in Southeast Asia, china, Nepal and japan.  There’s around 1.2 million Buddhist in the U.S. They believe in the Noble Truths. Which starts off with there is suffering. The second noble truth is attachment to desire is origin of suffering. The third one is there is a cessation of suffering, and lastly, eight hold paths will lead to the cessation of suffering. The founder Siddhartha Gautama is also known as the Buddha. 

Judaism

Jews are mainly located in Israel and U.S. Israel is dedicated for Jews. Judaism only has 14-18 million adherents. This is because of tragic events such as the Holocaust. Hitler wanted to kill every single Jew and he was very close to succeeding. Their founder is Abraham and their holy book is the Torah. Jews mainly believe God is one and concerned with the actions of human kind- ethical monotheism. 

The Pow Wow

JAN. 9.19

Today in class we talked about the packet we received yesterday. We did not go over it in class the day before because we didn't have time. But Mr. Schick really helped us out by making us just highlight important details instead of having to read the whole packet. This helped me out because l  could really focus on important parts that l  need to study rather than reading a whole packet and forgetting the stuff l  needed to study. We also talked about the pow wow that ill be attending on Saturday around 1 o clock. Im super excited for the Pow Wow because throughout my brother and neighbor's high school years I've always heard about the Pow Wow. l  even used to pass the sign outside the school when l  would be going home. Im super excited to witness the dances and rituals they perform. Im also excited to buy some jewelry that is handmade. The assembly we had and Mr. Schick talking about it has made me super excited to attend.
