Today, we learned more about the enlightenment in SS. We were required to take notes on the book, which we could have done for hw. I think we should do something else in class rather than simple manual and tedious work that can clearly be saved until after class.
In my AS presentation, I was interrupted so many times by George and Jason having nice, loud and irrelevant chats, but otherwise I think I got my topic across to the class quite well.
Mr. Nakamoto actually taught us something today, and, you guessed it. It's not grade 11 math. He went rambling about the determinants of a matrix and how to solve them. It was really interesting though. I actually learned how to obtain the determinant of a matrix without the help of a calculator. i fail to see its application, though.
Finally, we played basketball in PE. Nothing interesting.
