Europe Blog Post

During our Europe Unit in Language arts we did a lot of things to learn more about Europe. In the unit we took notes on power points that Mrs. Pyeatt put together for us, we also had to put on a play for the class that described a certain event that happened in European history. In this play we worked in groups of three and I had Jay Groh and Jaya Mamas in my group. We did a play about Isaac Newton discovering the force of gravity, there were three scenes and a lot of facts jammed into the presentation. I think everybody in the class benefitted from our filmed performance because there was a ton of stuff that our class didn't know in the play. I also think that I benefitted from our own project because I learned a lot about Isaac newton that I didn't know before. Ontop of that everybody else in the class put on a play and I think I learned a lot about Europe because of these presentations that the other students did. The only reason the class was able to put on several presentations was because in the beginning if the unit we learned a lot about European history. We took notes and learned about wars, geography, great leaders, and civilizations. After we finished all the power points that we took notes on, I felt that we knew a lot more about Europe. I am exited to see what more we do with our knowledge about Europe and I feel like I'm armed with knowledge about European history at all times.
