aftermath of the pyramid test

I was so surprised i thought i failed the test, but i got a 95. I am completely stunned as i am writing this. I am so happy.  Bye.

pyramids test

I was not prepared for the second to last page of the test. I think i got in the 80s on it, but i do not know. I looked up the answers and most were right, but some were wrong. This felt like a pre-midterm test. I was not ready for the last page i luckily remembered the answers from class, so that is good. I an so nervous about this test.

Final presentation (David showed up, but not for long)

Today in class David showed up from the ashes to present the power point for their class. We had to grade our class and because of your reaction to my grade for our group Ramona got scared and i told her she got a good grade. She then called my over to say i got a 110%. Because of your reaction we busted out into laughter for a long time. My questions for Somalia that i did not get to ask who pays the ransom  for ships taken by pirates  who turns their head to the piracy how do you handle people that become pirates because they were drafted step 5 slide- what raw material in exchange for jobs from businesses why do pirates not dare go to the other side of the golf of Aden  

presentation day

Today in class we presented our power points. I was very nervous, but i pulled it together. Their were for groups and we were one of the two not missing people, so we went second.

project practice

Today we orally practiced our presentations while trying not to laugh at Emily's face. We then worked on typing our blogs, like I am doing right know. Bye.

This project broke me

We continued our project. I found out that public debt wasn't something i should focus on and that i never want to do anything even remotely similar to this for a career. Bye.

Post industrial and industrial countries project start day

We chose Italy for our post industrial country and Puerto Rico for our developing country. We created a power point and assigned tasks to everyone. I am working on Italy's problems, Emma is working on the statistics for Italy, Joi is on the Power point structure, and Carolina and Ramona are on Puerto Rico. I started writing the problems with Italy that i found. The bell soon rang and no one realized it was for us because it was a D day.

EXAM PREP (WINTER IS COMING)

today we went over thing from the exam i need to know: publishers of CIA cia - CIA.gov life expectancy total fertility rate crude birth and death rate  rate of natural increase 300+ mil people in word importers of most oil exporters of most oil world pop. highest life expectancy japan higher life expectancy then U.S  2.1 maintain below-decrease above-increase Africa highest crude birth rate  how to find net migration turkey goes to Germany 1804-reached first bill. developed nation definition women have higher life expectancy  pop pyramid def japan-lowest fertility rate, subsaherant nation  U.S.imports most oil, GPD per cappida( find that) India- 2nd highest pop in world Nigeria- highest birth/death rate 

Facts relating to migration

The top ten most populous countries (in millions): China 1379.3; India 1281.93; United States 326.63; Indonesia 260.58; Brazil 207.35; Pakistan 204.92; Nigeria 190.63; Bangladesh 157.83; Russia 142.26; Japan 126.45; The most populous countries in the world are important in relation to our studies of population because it can show us the countries that are beginning to develop. When a country begins to develop there population starts to increase. These countries are ones with high population, the united states included. This fact shows us that these countries are developing into post-industrialization or have already reached post industrialization. I find this interesting because United states was one of these and i thought it would be all African and Asian countries. In conclusion this fact is important because it shows us one characteristic of a post industrialized country. Population growth rate of the world: 1.05% (2018 est.) This shows us how fast that the worlds population
