First Day of Western Civilization

Today was the first Western Civilization class of the second semester. I met my new teacher, Mr. Schick.

I was nervous at first to enter a new class with a new teacher, but after the first day, Mr. Schick seems super
engaging, fun, and quite funny. I am very excited to start this new class. However, since it was the first class,
we didn't take any notes and Mr. Schick just talked about the blog requirements and the class structure.
Mr. Schick told us all of the guidelines for the blogs. Some of the requirements are at least 150 words,
turned in that night before midnight, and need to include notes and what we did in class. At first, I was really
nervous and worried to write a blog for homework every time we had class, but now that I am writing, I don't
think the blogs will be difficult. Then, for the class structure, Mr. Schick said that we will need a composition
notebook because we will be taking notes most days in class. I am very happy that the class will be simple,
but I have heard that there are not many presentation projects in Mr. Schick's classes and that would be my
only suggestion; to have some partner or group presentation projects. Overall, I am very excited to be in Mr.
Schick's Western Civilization class.
