Quotes and why we study history

                                                                      Quotes.

   I like the quote "We are not the makers of history. We are made by history" by Martin Luther King, Jr.
   We study history because people want to know what it was like in the early ages. This leads to how
 humans evolved from early human. History tells us the cycle of life and how the earth was and what will happen in the future. History also tells us about who we are as a person and where we came from. It is cool learning about how humans in the past used things to survive. If we did not know anything about history we would know where we got our survival skills from and why we do what we do. And there has been some pretty interesting things that has been found from the past like the first form of painting, which was cave drawing. And things like tools, writing, and construction. Most of the things they used back then, we still use now. History just gives us an understanding of people and the society.

   I am Darrick Sanders and what I would like to learn this year is more about the ancient history

 because I like to learn about how we evolved from then to now. My favorite book is the hunger games.

 I read the hole series in middle school. When I read the first book, it made me want to read the rest of

 them. My favorite movie is the sitter with Jonah Hill because it is a really funny movie. Its about this

 guy that has to watch his moms friends kids because his mom wants to go on a double date. But

 everything goes wrong because Jonah wants to hang out with this girl that he thought was his

 girlfriend but she is really using him. So he has to take the kids with him but the kids get him in a lot of

 trouble and Jonah destroys the kids parents car. Its a really funny movie. If I could live in another

 country other that the united states, I would live in France Paris because it is a really cool place and

 there is a lot to do there. But first I would have to lear french and I think french is a cool language.

 I am Darrick Sanders and these where some of the things that you needed to learn about me.
