Today some people finished their continent and ocean quiz. We also went over some countries and capitols in Europe to fill in our maps. Lastly, we had a discussion on the #MeToo. #MeToo is about woman who are encouraged to share their stories and speak out on sexual harassment. But there are some woman who also spoke out against #MeToo. These woman said that everyone over analyzes everything men say to them. Even if a man is flirting to them, woman call it sexual harassment. The women that spoke out against #MeToo said that men should be allowed to flirt with woman without the woman calling it Sexual Harassment, but that rape is still wrong.

Taxes on marijuana could also benefit america through taxes, since marijuana sales are very high. We also discussed the harms of marijuana. This include the harmfulness to adolencents because their brains are still developing
