Section 3 question

In the beginning of the class, a lot of us are either tired, sick, or bored. As result, Mr. Schick gave us reading assignment as classwork instead of taking notes with PPT

Section 2 Review

1. The colonist felt very angry about the proclamation since it had impair their benefit dramatically.

2. The colonist protest British laws and acts by not purchasing British goods, refuse paying taxes, and forming a protest group called the Sons of Liberty. 

3. I will write protest letters and calling other colonist to sign it.

4. Now is the critical moment in making decision. We either strengthen our mind to fight the vicious British for our glorious freedom, or retreat over and over again until we are completely unable to fight like a frog in the hot water. If both of them will result death and casualties, then we shall rely on the one which is worth more to risk. 

Blog - Note

Today, we went over the ppt about the conflict between French and British.

N O T E

Alley - Friend country
Cede - to surrender

Mid 1700 - British settle Ohio River Valley, which is the west of the Appalachian Mountain
First - Native American
French - Trading partner (Animal hide, settlement in Quebec)

French - Need British to limit their settlement - only along Atlantic

• Control trade pathway
• Settling up post
• Trade with Native

But - French only have 65,000 people while British have 1,000,000!!!!!

The French and Indian War - British Win 

French - Surprise attack, hiding, camouflage

British - Marching, wearing red coat

Test

During the class, Mr Schick gave us the chapter test. Everybody was surprised since the test is only consist of fill in the blank with word box. In my opinion, this test was way more easy to get a hundred than previous tests. Most of us finish it in a short time period. Oh, Martha was one of the test question as mention by Toby yesterday XD How about that!

Oh oh we also had some delicious bread today :D Thank you Mr. Schick

Happy Thanksgiving !

Review

Today, we review the powerpoint for the test tomorrow. In general, i think this chapter is not very hard for me and i expect myself to get another 100 on the test.
