Today we had our Ancient Roman test. After we study for 10 minute, the test started. Mr. Schick told us the answer of question 14 because he made a mistake. Generally the test was not hard but i'm stuck in the numbers of senates and representatives of Rome and US for a while. I think i can get at least 80 on this test, hopefully

Today after Jayla's pottery, it's our turn for presentation. I was a little bit nervous when i standing in the front. But luckily, everything goes pretty well and every one was amazed by our LEGO Roman Temple model. After our presentation, we had Caitlyn and Thresh's diary which is also pretty good. At the end, Mr. Schick keep our model in order to take a final picture of all the project. I'm looking forward for the final picture!

Today is our first day of presentation. We had three groups presented today. First group brought us some amazing Roman foods! Like salad, pasta, cookies and apple juice with omen inside. I love the apple juice so much! The second group rewrites the lyric of an Iggy Azalea song. It was pretty cool and i like it. The third group is actually only one people. He gave us a very good presentation about Colosseum. For my group, we are going to present at tomorrow. I'm so excited about it!

We still have not finish our paper and PPT. Hopefully we can finish them up by the end of the weekend. Me and Alex are going to present on the Wednesday. I'm pretty excited about this!

Today we continued watch the BBC ancient Rome movie. On the second half of the movie, at the very beginning, Tiberius made a oath to barbarians in order to save his people. As the result, the conflict between Tiberius and the senates are more intense. Because of Tiberius's heroic behavior, most of the plebs are supported Tiberius against Octavius during the election. But eventually under the support of the senates, Octavius veto the Tiberius and win the election. After that Tiberius got killed by the senates and they threw his body into the river. I like this movie very much because it demonstrate the true historical event in Ancient Rome history. The only thing i feel bad is the British accent :(. It confuse me a lot during the movie.

Today we watched a BBC movie about Ancient Roman called " The rise and fall of an empire". Generally this movie is about the third Carthage war between Roman and Carthage, also talk about how Roman officers seize power by bully poor people. Personally i think the movie is very good because it mostly covered the stuff that we discussed during the class.

Today we talk about the government and the plebs of the Ancient Roman. Here are some notes:
- Roman government is similar to US government, but not exactly.
- They both have three branches: executive, legislative and judicial.
- Plebs had to serve in the army but could not hold office.
- Plebs were threatened with debt slavery
- Plebs had no legal rights.
