The homework foe today was to reread page 104 to page 109, so in class, we talked about basically the same thing last time. Mr. Burghauser wanted us to write 5 most important things in the Chapter, and again, we were devided into groups of 2, and the members in every group stayed the same. Connie and Eunie were in group 1, their 5 most important things were Confucius Great Wall, Other Ethical system, Qin Dynasty and Legalism. Grace and I were in group 2, our 5 most important things were The warring state period, Confucius-The 5 basic relationship-(1)ruler & subject (2)father & son (3)husband & wife (4)older brother younger brother (5)friend & friendFilial Piety is the respect for parents and ancestors, Daoism, Laozi, only natural order was important. And the Qin Dynasty replaced the Zhou Dynasty, Qin Sgi Haungdi. The two boys, Jordan and Kevin were in group 3, and their 5 most important things werer Confucius, Daoism, I Ching and Yin and Yang, Shi Haungdi and Legalist. After sharing all these 5 most important things in each group, Mr. Burghauser found out the common ones and told us to do a Powerpoient presentation about the selected topic of your group. The topics were Legalist v.s. Confucius, Daoism, and Qin Dynasity. At firt, everyone wanted to do Qin Dynasty, why? I don't know, but I know I want to do it because there is more informations about it, therefore It might be easer to do the researching. Then, I was thinking that someone has to grow up here, so I changed my mind and chose another topic, Legalist v.s. Confusius. And I hope it helped Mr. Burghauser a bit, because then he only had to throw the coin once. lol
