Today was our last day to get to finish our research, we had a substitute today while Mr. Sparks was away. I got to finish up my research and finish my bibliography although, i thought i would be done much quicker, but it ended up taking me the whole lesson. I was actually planning on re-reading my notecards to make sure i didnt write any similar notes during my research, but this lesson seemed to go by quickly as i was finishing up my research that i didnt have time to do anything, but that. I actually wish we had one more lesson to fifinsh up so i can make sure that i didnt do anything wrong in my notes and to check that i hadnt missed out on any more sites for my bibliography.

Day 24
April 28th 2009
I planned on finishing up my notes on social class, however things didnt exactly go as i thought they would. I actually ended up finding about half a page of more information on a new website i used today, so i just decided i could write some more since it was finally available. I'm just so happy that I've been using my time wisley and that im catching up with my work quickly. I mostly worked on Social class today I didnt get to finish yet, but I'm planning tommorow to finish up with that and move on to finding some more information on religion since i feel that I have the least amount of notecards for that. I could say that todays work was good since i found myself prepared with alot of notecards.

Day 23
I was so happy when Mr. Sparks announced to the class that we could finally start doing our research on Google. I immediatley started my research and had found a ton of useful websites. I even used Brainpop.com to watch some videos i had found on ancient Greece. I gathered alot of good information today and felt that i had progressed a lot and made good use of my time. Mr Sparks said we will only have about a week to do our research. I didn't panic though because I think thats just the right amount of time I need to finish my research. I think at the moment I have just the right amount of notecards i need, although i will be sure to add some more.

Day 22
April 26th 2009
Today I felt that everything was complete. I added a few more notecards to my piles. About three or more for each. I visited one more website, then reveiwed back to the other websites i had already visited to see if I had missed out on any more notes. I had researched all the websites and there were no more websites to visit. When I was finished things started to get boring to be honest because there was nothing much to do since i had finished researching through all the websites offered on ancient Greece. I had found a little more useful information, but all the infromation i gathered seemed repetetive to me. Im just hoping that soon we can start doing some more advanced research like going on Google to extend the research and to look for more specific detail on my topic or maybe just access to some more helpful multimedia websites on ancient civilizations that we can use.

Day 21
April 23/04/09
Today i decided to try some new websites. I found three useful websites, one of them i found more useful than others and had lots of information i needed. I filled the religion pocket with four new notecards. I found a lot more information on religion, but time passed by quickly and i didnt get enough time to complete my research, however i found today a very productive and useful lesson despite the fact that i didnt do any other charactertistic besides religion and i didnt get to complete my research on it.

Day 20
April 21st 2009
I was glad when Miss Fletcher was going to show us some more websites we could go on today, I was even more happy when i went to a website called BBC which had everything i needed to know on ancient Greece. Luckily i even found something on social class, just what i needed. I also added about four more cards on Government and law. So I thought things went well today , i had found a lot more useful information than i thought i would. The next lesson im planning on finding some more information on religion , since i only have 12 cards for it. Overall , i thought i did very well today and accoplished alot in just one lesson.

Day 19
April 20th 2009
Before we got to go in the multimedia labs there was a bit of a confusion for which lab we had to go in so we wasted about 5 minutes looking for a lab we could go in. Once we found one i started looking for more information i could find on Government and law and to my surprise, i had found just the thing. I was happy that i had covered everything and even found before the end of the period some information on social class, but i was a little dissapointed that we still wern't going to work on more sites to expand our research. There wasn't much to be done this lesson except for adding some more information on government and law. I am absaloutley positive that for our next lesson , Miss Fletcher will be showing us some more websites that we can use to expand our research.

Day 18
April 19th 2009
I was very happy with what i had accomplished today. I found alot more information on Government and law as well as Social class. I had also found an interesting paragraph on Religion that i thought was very important. I was very happy that i had alot more notecards than before in just three days of working in the multi-media lab, although i'd rather prefer working in the library, where i had found alot more information. Nothing was fond on Grolier online so i stayed with the Brittanicca online website. I found today's lesson very helpful and hope that in the next lesson we can visit more websites, seeing that i have finished researching in the websites were using now.

Day 17
April 16th 2009
Today was quite a tiring day for me as it was the last period on a Thursday afternoon, however i did acomplish quite alot. I found some information on Government and law and ended up adding about 3 more cards to my pile. Unfortunatley though, I couldnt find anything on social class. I found some information on Grolier for Government and law as well, but not much to write since the content was the same as i had found on the other website. I'm hoping we get to visit more websites soon because i think i have covered all the information i need so far. Im also hoping that next time i will find more information on Government and law.

Day 16
April 14th 2009
Today was our first day in the Multi-media lab. When we got inside Miss Fletcher showed us how to make a shortcut for a website that we are going to be using for finding our research information. Before we began, Mr. Sparks spent a couple of minutes explaining to us the rules and consequences about going on websites that are not to do with our work. As i started off with Brittanicca online, I was pleased to see that there was alot of information on the ancient Greeks in Religion although I couldnt find any information on Government and laws or Social class. I thought the website Grolier wasn't very useful at all, so i decided for today i would just write all i could find on religion.

Today was officially our last day in the library , since i didnt get to finish writing my notes for religion from last time i decided to complete it ,then go over my notes and try to find some more information if i found any on government and law. When i finished writing my notes for religion i felt positive i wasnt missing anything else. All my notes were covered. Ofcourse i tried to also search for any more information i could find on government and law , but unfortunatley found nothing. I was still pleased with the work i had done today , i completed everything and im sure i will be fine with all the notes i have now.

Day 14
Today we were sopposed to go to the multimedia lab, but Mr. Sparks said we could have two more lessons in the library before we head to the lab so we can take down more notes if we need to. I covered some more notes on religion and found more information on religious festivals . I couldnt find any more information on government and laws or social class, but im glad that i atleast covered enough information on religion .
