cyber day 4

The first week of cyber week went very well. I have been waking up at a good time, for the most part and getting my work done by around 1 or 2 o'clock every day. Some of the work for other classes can be pretty difficult due to the fact that the teacher is not next to us for a guide and sometimes emailing back and forth can be pretty confusing. I would much rather be in school with my friends learning then having to do it all online, but there is not much we can do about that. I am very thankful that I have great teachers that are trying to make this transition as smooth as possible. I am hoping that we will be able to go back to school this year because I am really enjoying my time at John Carroll and it being cut short by something so devastating is really sad. I hope that as cyber school continues into next week it will keep going well.

Thousands of enslaved persons many of whom had been captured peoples in various wars were forced to work on these estates. By 100 B.C. enslaved persons formed perhaps 1/3 of Rome's population.

Today in class we talked about how our online classes would work. Mr. Schick explained how he doesn't want to do online facetime calls because some people wouldnt join the call and it would be pointless if only half the class is on. He decided just to post all of our work on veracros. We will have to read textbook pages and answer the questions he get us in a blog by 11:59 that night. He doesn't think giving us 45 minutes of work would be nesscary so he is going to give us so the same amount of work that we usually do during class. The class also talked about the symptoms, effects, and risks of the coronavirus and he told us that to stop the spread we should all try to stay home and not go about our regular days and risk getting others sick.
