I am Ms. Wagner and I am a teacher upgrading my qualifications. For the next six weeks I will be teaching history in Mr. Marshall's Social Studies classes.
Today, after a series of interruptions ( at least two fire alarms), we managed to have a brief review of the attributes of civilization. We remembered back to grade seven and came up with a number of factors: stable food supply, water, a system of government,specialized labour and finally, a highly developed culture. We listened to the "history teachers" parody of Gwen Stefani's"Harajuku Girls" called "civilization." Link here: We noted that the song reinforced attributes of civilizations including: architecture, super cities,money, art and religions. We ended the class with Tableaus of a wedding. Although a wedding has little to do with civilization we are preparing ourselves for Wednesday's class.
