Today in Human geo we started off by getting out final test grades back. I got a 92% I’m very happy because that means I will have finished this quarter with an A. Then we went over each problem that was on the test and shared them out loud and talked about ones that we got wrong.  Then we picked up where we left off yesterday with migration. Today we talked about the reasons why people would migrate and why they chose some places over others to move to. These factors are either push or pull. Pull factors is what’s pulling you into a new country, examples include political and religious freedom, better health services, and better economic opportunity. Push factors are factors that make you leave your current living situation. Example include, environmental degradation, religious or political persecution, civil war, and unemployment or under employment. That’s where we ended today’s class.

Today in human geo we talked about the essay that we will be seeing on the exam tomorrow. It was the exact question and pictures that we will have tomorrow so that was a big help. The question is about population pyramids and demographic transition. I was very nervous about this essay but after talking a lot about it in class and after asking a few questions, I feel much more confident. Tonight I will study a lot by reading his blog, I will go over notes in my notebook and I will also review my old tests and quizzes. I feel pretty good about this exam because I made a good quizlet to help me study and it covers a lot of material from the beginning of the year, and also more recent things we did. Lets hope it pays off.

Today in human geo we started class by turning in our world leaders project and going over the correct answers. Today's class was only 40 minutes because we had a two hour delay due to the snow. I thought and hoped we were going to be off but that wasn't the case. The world leaders project was fairly easy for the most part. The only part that was hard was finding the leader because there were a few options to choose from. I hope I get a good grade so that I can end this quarter with an A because currently I have a high B. Also we have a test about the different States coming up that I will need to make sure I study for.

When I first walked into human geo I realized that the classroom was surprising warm. This was nice because it is really cold outside and most of the first floor is too. I hope that we get off school tomorrow and maybe even Friday. Then we all got mints because a classmate had a bunch left over from advisory, so overall class was off to a good start.  Today in class we started off by reviewing the qualities of an independent State. Then we watched a cartoon video of all the countries in the world. And finally, we got the information for our world leaders project and got to start it.
