In chapter two the things I learned about that I will remember the most are the seven regions of Washington. What I learned is that each region has charactoristics that make it unique, such as the flora and fauna factors or the land type that the region is located in. This is important because it is good to know what region you live in, whether you need the information or not.
In chapter three the thing I’ll remember most is learning about Coastal and Plateau indians. What I learned is how the animal carving at the top of a totem pole shows what tribe lives in the building behind the totem pole, that the differences between the two types of indians vary from how groups are separated to the politics of the indians. This is important because most of what we know currently and what we are still learning come from the ideas that originated in the Coastal and Plateau indians’ tribes and bands.
In chapter one, the thing that I’ll the “Mystery of the Scablands.” What I learned about this subject is that there were a lot of hypotheses about this mystery. The most likely hypothesis, though, is that which states that there was a series of floods over thousands of years, and the ash towards the middle of the Scablands is from Mt. St. Helens erupting sometime in between two floods. The mystery of the Scablands is an important part of our state history because it is such a mesmerizing site, a great place to learn about history and geography and maybe get rock samples. It’s a tourists’ dream come true! Anyways, The Scablands will always be somewhere in my mind.
The Arabian Peninsula

(Please note: THIS IS A PARTIALLY FICTIONAL STORY THERE ARE NO TIME MACHINES AND I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THE ARABIAN PENINSULA)
As I look back at my adventures in time, one stands out from the rest; my trip to the year 600c.e. on the Arabian Peninsula As most of you know, I invented the time machine andit is a big hit, so to those of you who are planning to be adventurous like me I suggest the time and place above.But before you go I must warn you of a few things you will come across on your adventure you will be visiting the oasis, desert, coastal plains, and the mountains. there will be problems with food water travel and several others, so listen, or, well, read closely.
First of all, always pack enough water for a year, you will drink it in less than a month. My second tip, take items from our time to trade, they get you much more value. third, buy a camel, they are a good source for carrying your stuff, they don’t need to drink water too often, you can eat them and drink their milk, well, you get the point. Numero Quatro is five syllables: wear loose fitting clothes. And before you leave, learning the Arabic language and writing couldn’t hurt you.
My sixth piece of advice is to learn how to barter; otherwise you could start off with $1000 worth of stuff, and end up with $50 worth of junk. You should always remember that wearing black will absorb heat, so you must wear yellows and whites so, basically wear colors, wear the colors of the color wheel, sunny side up! The eighth thing to remember is to greet everyone, and be polite.
You should also remember not to cover your ears when someone is chanting, it isn’t a very good idea. And lastly, if you want to become sedentary, move to the mountains or the oasis, they are cooler than other places on the Arabian Peninsula.
Please feel free to go but remember what I told you, never forget it, it is important. you have been warned…
1. What part of the assignment did you do the best at? Why
I think the part of the assignment I did best was the illuminated letter. This is because I used a cool design that gives it depth, and I did it very neatly.
2. If you had the chance to do it over again, what would you change? Why?
I would change the pictures if I could do it again. I didn’t like my drawings and I would prefer to get pictures from online for it.
3. In terms of learning how to do the assignment, what was the most helpful teaching tool? Why?
I don’t exactly understand what this question is asking so there fore I can’t answer it.
4. What else do you want Mr. T to know about this assignment?
I really enjoyed this and hope we do more projects similar, but not the same as this one. I f we do, I hope that it will have less letters than this one (;D) and that we don’t have to have as many pictures.
My dad told me about the book “One up on Wall Street” by Peter Lynch; the stock genius, and quted him as such; “If you can’t explain a stock to a person with a crayon, don’t buy it.” I suggest that when you buy stocks on howthemarketworks.com, that you research it first, or use companies that you use products rom on a daily basis, or something that you know everything about.
