What have I learned about the Renaissance?

Posted by debora13 in Uncategorized

We have been working on the renaissance for a while now and I have learned A LOT about them and got pretty interested in them too! I thought that when we started learning about them, it would be very boring but it wasn’t, I really enjoyed it. So when we started playing the game, it was really fun because we could learn and have fun at the same time because I really enjoy searching stuff in the web that we have to find, and when I find it, I love reading about all this interesting facts about the past.

In the game, we had stump and the blunder card. Some stump cards were very hard to do because we didn’t just have to search and find out what something is, we actually had to do work and it was very hard to find answers to stump cards. Ex: There was a stump car that our group got that we had to find 3 different houses from the renaissance and then draw it, It was very hard to even find a house from back then. Then, there were blunder cards, which we only had to research what something is or was today and write about it. Ex: our group had a blunder card which we had to see how watches we’re made and where it was created and when too, then write about it.

Story:

         Saturday morning, the Kenya Airlines officially said that the plane has approximately 114 people, including 105 passengers from 23 countries. They found out this information by having Cameroon’s military dispatch helicopters from Douala airport to where the plane had crashed (Southern Cameroon). Just before the crash, they were flying over the forested area where they lost signal with the airlines. Villagers have said that they heard a large “boom” sound that night but no wreck or parts of the plane were found. Also, the plane crash may have happened because of the rain (the plane was delayed one hour because of the rain) but it is too early to really know what happened.
