Social+studies

Most simply The **Social Study of Information Systems** is interested in people developing and using technology and the "culture" of those people. SSIS studies these phenomena by drawing on and using "lenses" provided by social sciences, including: Philosophy, Sociology, Social Psychology, Organizational Theory, Political Science.

We learned so much this year. I like my teacher and class. On the first day of 5th grade I came in not knowing that much and came out learning much more. There is a lot of social studies, math, laurels, and language arts. In these subjects we learned a lot but it wasn't to hard. I think that I did exceptional and defiantly better then in the beginning of the year. I loved the year and I am going to miss 5th grade and Lower school. I enjoyed studying ancient Greece. The reason why is because we would get to study the gods and there would be all kinds of fun myths as well as real stories. Time flied when we studied this subject. I found interesting in ancient civilizations in general is that they were old and part of our history. I am doing great with improvement because I learned FIVE civilizations that before I knew nothing about. Some things that I got better at was geography like learning about where ancient civilizations where located today, note taking like when we were studying the ancient Maya civilization, I got better at report writing and can now write much better, and I can now connect information better.

This is my social studies folder.

Ancient Egypt Project

The most successful part of the project would be the creative part which would be the art project. A reason why is because the art project took me two days. Each day I worked about two hours on it or more. It was more easier because it was an art project. The most difficult part of this project was the essay. The reason why is because it is a long and a harder process than the art project. A change in my habits will be that I will pay more attention to the other things going on, not just my report so that I can see if I am missing something or not. It would come in handy because I have forgot a thing or two in this report. In the process I need to work on organizing my information. Why I will need to organize my information better is because if you don't your essay will turn out to be a disaster.

Here is a picture of my art project.---
