September 26th

Today's class was a very interesting period. We had 10 minute discussions about our assigned first amendment topics. I myself talked and led a discussion about freedom of press. I had my group discussing magazines and other press related subjects and how they sometimes abuse their freedom of press. Lying and if it is okay or not was also discussed briefly.

Sept 25th

The last few classes have been in my mind, very helpful. We have been discussing the constitution, the writers of it, the bill of rights, and the first few political parties in depth. I have enjoyed the class discussions because I find them a great way to learn. I have also enjoyed the group work that has been assigned in class from time to time. These pieces of work have been great opportunity to learn and discuss topics with my peers.

Sept.17 and Sept.18 classes

The past two classes have been, well, what i expect and wish for in a history class. There was a good amount of teacher lecturing, which is how I retain the most information. There was also a lot of worksheets and other activities that were group oriented, which is another great way for me to learn. I was extremely pleased with the direction in which the last two history classes were headed. I look forward to seeing more and more of this because i will succeed in a class taught in such a matter.
