We mocked one another's New Africa maps and continued to get settled in our new room (E5). I assigned you an in-class writing task, requiring you to write either two separate paragraphs or one page-long story about two countries. You must deal with the following:
1 Economic Situation: Resources, exports, poor/rich?
2 Capitol City: Location
3 Military Situation: Big spenders? At war?
4 Dominant Ethnic group.
5 Any other comments/tidbits
Staple it to your map and turn it in. Try to have some fun with this, but be realistic too. No armies of 10-foot zombies that eat sand and poop diamonds. See ya...

ReplyDeleteRelax, Brodin. The last thing we need is an angry German during weak economic times. If you want to get into architecture school, I'm sure history has taught us to give you a chance.
ReplyDeleteIt seemed a little unclear on the last blog post, or it just might be me, but is next quiz on friday and if so on asia?
ReplyDeleteWe have an Asia test on Tuesday and an Oceania Test next Friday. At least, that's what I got from the post.
ReplyDeletethis is a mystery, all right?

ReplyDeleteThank You Mr. Plunkett
ReplyDeleteOh ROMO! I have an eye apointment tomorrow. Could I stop by early in the day to get the sheet and finish it through the day or some other arrangement? I don't think I will have time in class.
ReplyDeleteNope.
ReplyDeleteHaha, darn. I really wanted my country to have an undead army of diamond producing soldiers. There goes my plan! Can we have 9 foot half dead people that eat dirt and poop other precious stones?
ReplyDeleteI had hoped we would have some more time to put some thought into our stories, but of course someone had to ruin that for us
ReplyDeleteThe idea was to think quickly - a rare, yet valuable skill you will need in order to TRULY succeed in life.
