Then when i flipped through the pages and i saw that it had a page on religion my first characteristic so I started doing it and i thought that i wouldn't have enough time to finnish it but thankfully i did. Then by the end of the lesson i found a great book on education and i'll be working on it on the last day we have at the library (thursday).

Ninth Day Of Researching
Today we went to the library to do some research. I missed yesterdays lesson so i had to catch up. I found a really good about education. It tells you the ancient Romans language and what they wrote on and their writing instruments. Next lesson I will work on jobs because i still haven't worked on it yet. The problem with education is that i can't find out what schools the kids went to or how they were taught I'm hoping to fin that out.

Sixth Day Of Researching
Today we went to the library, it was a little crowded because there were two classes our class and Mr. Sparks class. We were all using the same books. I'm happy i chose rome because not a lot of people were doing it so i had a lot of books to choose from and i didn't need to rush. I tried to look for a book about education but there aren't that many. I found one but it wasn't very specific and it didn't only talk about education, it talked about education and government. I hope that next lesson i find a good book about education.

Fifth Day Of Researching
Today we went to the library, The book i was working with last lesson was taken by another student so i had to pick another book. I tried to look for a book about education but it was really hard to find because there aren't that many. I found a really good book about religion it tells u all the gods and what they did. One of the librarians also took us and showed us how to do a bibliography using the computer with a website called easybib.com. She showed us how to use it and it's very easy to use and she really helped us.

Fourth Day Of Researching
Today we didn't go to the library we stayed in class. Mrs. Fletcher came in and talked to us about how to summarize an article from a book. We had to summarize it and then write it in bullet points like we would write it in a power point. This really helped us so in the future we wouldn't just copy chunks of words and wouldn't understand what they mean. Now that i know how to do this it will make things much easier when I'm writing my essay or doing my power points.

Third Day Of Researching
Today was our third day of researching, i got all my guiding question done for all three of my characteristics. The library was very crowded today because there was to classes in their so we had share all the book which was a bit difficult because to people wanted the same book. Thankfully in the end i got a lot of research done. I found a really good book about education today and it gives you a lot of information. I didn't start education today because there wasn't enough time, but I'm hoping to start it next lesson. I finished reading text in the book about religion and i summarized it.

Second Day Of Researching
Today we went to the library again to research more about our ancient civilizations. Today i kept on researching about religion because i didn't finnish summarizing the text. I am nearly done religion and i hope that next lesson i can start on a different characteristic. I didn't do as much work as i could this lesson i could have done some more work if i focused some more i could have finished the text. I am really enjoying learning about ancient Rome and can't wait for our next lesson. I'm hoping that next lesson i'll work hard and try to get religion done and work on my other characteristic.

First Day of Researching
Today was the first day of researching and we had to look at the books of the ancient civilizations and pick one. I chose Ancient Rome, well i wanted Ancient Egypt but too many people were doing that civilization so i couldn't do it. I am really interested in Ancient Rome to and I'm excited about researching about it. My three characteristics are education, religion and jobs. Today i focused on religion because i really good book about it so i decided to do it. I had a little trouble writing in bullet points but after a while i got the hang of it and I'm getting much better.
