Ding! You Got Grades!

Today in Human Geo, we went over our graded unit one tests together. First we went up to go get our papers from Mr. Schick one by one. You knew immediately if you got and A or not because if you did Mr. Schick rang his bell on his classroom on wheels. I was very pleased to hear that bell when I approached Mr. Schick to accept my test grade. We went over the multiple choice questions on the first part of the test by going around the room and saying our answers. We only had big problems when it came to the essay writing portion of the test. I had a hard time with the description of Socrates but that was it. It seemed like I wasn't the only one. Cody said he was hurt by Mr. Schick's comments on his essay which we all had a good laugh about. He said that Mr. Schick said that he was a big mistake which made me laugh pretty hard. Turns out we cleared out the whole thing out and mistakes were corrected with no crying. Also we discussed the essay on Socrates' saying "the unexamined life is not worth living". Mr. Schick explained this didn't mean go run out into traffic like there's no tomorrow, it means more than that. He only counted the explained answers for that essay question because he felt like he was reading the same thing over and over. I was quite satisfied with my grade and though the test was pretty easy for me. I hope the rest of this year goes this smoothly for me in this class.
