Today in socials we studied for our test this Friday on 17th century england. That's basically what we did today 
Today in socials I learned about englands revolution. We also learned about how Charles I died, how England abolished monarchy but then made Charles II king, Oliver Cromwell and then he died and his son took over then he resigned and James II became king then he left England and his daughter and her husband became king and queen. Well that's what we learned in socials in today.
Due to lack of time yesterday im righting my blog entry today. First of all Mr Hannigan blew his top and kicked Nick, Tarah and I out. Actually it was a example of Court of Star Chamber. I will touch on that later. Yesterday we touched a bit more on King Charles I. We talked about how he gained and saved money. He used tunnage a poundage.That is when you charge a tax for importing and exporting. He aslo saved money by billeting. Billeting is when he got his soldiers ti stay at local farmers houses. He saved money by billeting because he didnt have to build shelters for his troops. As I mentioned earlier Court of Star Chamber is when you get arrested and released on a massive bail amount. This is a very unfair but accurate description of the government at the time. Thats we learned in socials yesterday.
Today in socials we learned about James the 1st and his son Charles the 1st. We learned that they were both really crappy, selfish and slobby leaders and that James 1st invented the divine right if kings. It stated that all of the kings powers came from god and that he was gods representative on earth. That's what we learned in socials today.
King Charles I
Today in Socials we Answered Three question about puritans and what effect the had on today's life. Some of those questions asked stuff like: What was the most unusual thing that they did and why was it most unusual. They also asked: Who were the Puritans and what things in there society that they did had a longing effect on our community. We also talked about witches and what happened to if they were considered a witch. We also had a quiz that we did in partners. The quiz was about 17 th centuy England and their lifestyles.
Well thats about it for what we did in socials today.
Well thats about it for what we did in socials today.
Today in socials we talked about where we are compared to England. We also talked about how England became wealthier using their trading to gain money. We also talked about the classes of early 1700's England and how well off they were. There were three classes of society. There an upper class. The upper class was usually the kings, the kings advisers, nobles and high church officials. Usually the upper class lived in town and country houses and were very cruel and unfair. They usually gained most of their money by declaring unfair taxes. The Middle Class was still well off and the upper middle class lived in town houses and country houses as well but still didn't get as much money as the upper class. The lower class worked their fingers to the bone for 10 pennies or less than had to pay most of it to the king. The lower class lived in cramped, small homes. The lower class had a very low quality of living. Also today in socials we had to pick a question for the week to answer. My question what happened in the plane crash in suburban Buffalo. Well that's what we learned in socials today.
Today I learned about the differences in times in which the dominance of religion is different from the time science is dominant. We also pieced to together what the scientific revolution is and what is about and what it lead up to we also learned about humanism and we also learned about the word nation and it's difference between now and the 1500's.
Today in socials we learned a bit more about the scientific revolution. We also learned how kings gained power and their taxes. We learned about taxes through skittles...Yummm skittles. Well thats about it for today
Today in Socials we learned how to properly do a map. We also learned about The Scientific Revolution and who started it. Some of the people who helped The Scientific Revolution were Martin Luther, Nicolas Copernicus and Galileo. Also today in socials we had to choose our weekly question. My question this week is, drum roll please.....What was the main reason for world war two. That is what I learned in socials

Dear Mr. Hannigan and other readers. It would be very helpful if you could leave comments to let me know if you thought it was good or if you think it needs improvement and how I could improve.
