Weekly Blog Post

Week of March 16-20

This week Mrs. Cervantes had me reading the first chapter in our Economics book, to better understand what Economics is about. While I was reading the first chapter I decided to take cornell notes on the entire chapter so that I wouldn't forget the material that I had just read. When I was done understanding what the basics of Economics are I started a PowerPoint presentation. I included things that I thought were important about Economics. I thought of it in the way that if someone didn't know anything about economics then they could look at my PowerPoint and have a better understanding on what economics is about.
