Today we went over everyones Egyptian raps in class.It was a lot of fun and also really funny. Some of the raps were amazing and took a long time ! On friday we may have someone from Egypt skype with us if we are lucky enough and some of the questions I would ask are..

Verse 1:
mummy's are cool they go to school
they even like it when they swim in the pool
its all started way back then , they didn't even have themselves a bed
tombs are what they used to lay in ,
the desert is a really hot place
theres a really cool sign on that vase


Chorus :
mummy's mummy's pyramids
used to be so cool way back when

Verse 2:
The ABC's are new and better
way back then they used hieroglyphics,
that was the signs we used to talk 
now we have moved on and are ready to rock

Chorus :

mummy's mummys pyramids 

used to be so cool way back when

Verse 3:
Now this is done over with cool
People on Egypt should rap this at school
This is ending done done

Essay !

   There is a huge transition people used to have to do back in the day , and that is going from being a hunter gatherer to a farmer . These are two completely different things and have two way different things that need to get done .  This is a major transition that many people had to do.

   Hunter gatherers are needed for getting the animals and killing them to give to farmers. The farmers job is to raise the animal and then get what it needs to kill it . They started to need a lot more farmers though then hunter gatherers. The cause of that was because it was easy to get wheat and barley but not always easy with the meats.
  
   This is what many people had to do just do they would have food for there tribes. Getting stuff like crops and fruits was so much easier to get and they needed it for survival. Back then this was a huge deal but it had to be done .

Today is a really fun class. We are ahead of all the class's in our work so we get a class to do any work we want to. This is cool because I can get a break and get done some of the odds and ends I needed and i can relax. This has been a very stressful weekend for me because of cheer leading. I had practice from 530-930 on Friday and then had to be back for the competition at 10 the next morning. On Friday at practice I was having a breathing problem and then on Saturday I hurt my nose. This weekend was stressful but we ended up getting second place and im so proud of all my girls !

More movie !

Today in class we are watching some more of the movie. This morning we had a two hour delay and i got to sleep in . This is what is happening Making plaster from limestone was a huge thing. They would use anything to make materials and using fire is good for steal. Surplus, they always make way more food then what they really need. They have such a dry climate that no matter what crops they had , it would be destroyed. Culture , politics, and religion are also a major part of things. Diamond says his year in new Guinea shows that you can find smart people anywhere. There is a very tropical weather climate there. There are MAJOR cultural differences but whats important is the help they get. This movie shows a lot about how different these two places are , but its a very good important movie and gets you to learn a lot.

Were back in school !

Today in class we are watching the movie again. We didn't have class yesterday but that's okay because we wouldn't have had class anyways even if there was school. In the movie they are pretty much talking about how to survive and get food for a good living in paupi new Guinea . Crops and plans like barley and wheat are two very important things. Raising goats is a very big advantage. They can be used for food drink and there fur . Also whatever made from them is very healthy. Also they can get wool from goats and there meat is very popular. All animals at first were used for there meat , and then other causes. Hopefully we will have class tomorrow and there is no more crazy weather . They are starting to take away from other off time including summer ! :( The 14 animals are : pigs, goats, sheep, horses, cows, donkeys, camels , other camels, water buffalo's , llamas, reindeer, yaks , bali , mithan. Not one of those were from Australia or papiu New Guinea.

Another day off !

Today we got off from ice hazards , and a lot of ice being on the road. I didn't understand it but apparently theres been a lot of accidents !
