History is Fun, But Hard-Joshua K. 8D
Today in History class, everything started with Mr. Armstrong's loud, deep voice like he did usually. We wrote the homeworks in our agenda after the attendence. The homework was only writing 2 comments in different people's discussion, and taking notes for the seminar which will be on Monday. Mr. Armstrong went over the homework, which was writing notes about the Middle Passage, by using Jay Lee to demonstrate the real situation that happened long time ago. Jay Lee was the captain of the ship and he went to Terry Kim for Africa and took Terry Kim to Nick Yun colony, which was the Americas. For getting the slave, Jay Lee got sugar, tobacco and other things to England. By Jay Lee showing the triangular trade route, it was better to understand. After knowing the basics, Mr. Armstrong showed us a video which was related to the slaves on the way to Americas. The slaves were very desperate in the video, can see that they didn't get treated well. We turned on the computer that was on our desk at the beginning after we watched the slaves going throught Middle Passage. We took notes for like about 20 minutes and the bell rang.
