3rd of March
On Wednesday we were told to choose a topic for our work. We had a few choices to choose from. Out of all of them I chose Ancient Rome. I chose it because I have seen many movies, and read many books, that made Ancient Rome an interesting topic. So after we chose our topic we had to think about 3 of the characteristics of civilization, and make up 7 or 6 questions for each characteristic. I choose: Religion, Art and Architecture, and Government.

On Thursday we had to research about our topic, and find information that could help answer the questions we made. I wasn’t done so I had to finish up my questions. I was thinking about questions, which could relate to the others I had, and get a discussion going on, so then it would be easier to understand the topic.

On Tuesday, I had finished my question for each characteristic. In the library they taught us a way to do our bibliography online, in a way that it is organized, and easy to make. While doing my questions, I was also thinking about, what books, or websites I could use to answer my questions.

On Wednesday, we went to the library to research about our ancient civilization, to then answer our questions. I used Wikipedia to research my topic, because it gives all the information needed to answer my questions, and research about it, in a single document, instead of looking around 10 books. Reading is still important, but Wikipedia gives me a more complex image of what I'm looking for.

On Sunday, i took different books, but this time i didn't use the book to answer my questions, and used it to get random information that related to my questions, in order to use it, and answer them.

On Wednesday, i was interested to find information about Religion, and Art and Architecture, i was able to finish of the information for Religion and Art and Architecture, so i decided since i didn't have any information for Government, to search for some. I was able to find out how the government changed from having a king, to a republic. I didn't copy all the information, so i am hoping to finish it next class.

Today i was searching about religion. I was able to find out how their religion works, what they believe in, their believes, how religious they were, etc. All this information was helpful to answer parts of my religion questions, and some linked to government and art.

13th of April
Today i was working on undone work from last lesson, which i was working on religion. I found this whole website with information of how Christianity got to Rome. I was done with it and i figured out i had little about government, so i searched about the government of Rome, and i found a website with a whole page of information. I found information of how the government is organized and how there were different groups of people who had different jobs.
