Reflection

December 1, 2006

I enjoyed learning that the fact Morroco could over power such a powerful country. Shangai thought they would have the power forever but they were wrong. Morroco showed them they could be over powered by another country.

I liked learnig about the very begining before iron was made. It’s actually quite creative what they did. They used only sticks and stones as weapens. After that came the iron.
