In today's class, we spent the entire time searching facts about Rome.  We looked up the colosseum, Circus Maximus, Roman Forum, and aqueducts. all we did was pretty much look up these things and find very interesting facts that we have never heard about them before .  This taught me alot about all four of these things that were built in ancient times.

todays class was very interesting, we watched the allegory in the cave which was about plato and how we see hings as people and really dont think outside of the box. this lesson was for mr schick to not just say okay to the things we learn. we should always have questions and not just beleieve everything that we hear.

todays class mostly consisted of  us talking about mr Schicks past job of him meeting all kinds of celebrities and actors. it is very cool how he met all these actors and spent long periods of time working with these famous people. than we started watching a video about plato i think. it was about the illusions that theses 3 people who were chained up kept seeig. all they could see were there shadows. we havnt watched much of the video so i really dont know what it is about.
