- Religion changed in the time of the Renaissance for the better, people had more freedom to believe what they want and new ideas started to form.
- The exchange of ideas grew stronger in the Renaissance because the people had more time to practice other jobs besides agriculture.
- Trading expanded when other ways of travel were discovered.
3. The exchange of ideas grew stronger in the Renaissance because the people had more time to practice other jobs besides agriculture. Having a food surplus was the turning point to begin the Renaissance. When people didn't have to spend all their time farming, they were able to focus more on arts and inventing. Then trading was made possible because civilizations actually have something to trade. The trading led to the exchange of ideas, which then spread different cultures to new parts of the world. Because civilizations were exposed to new cultures, changes began to occur. Everything was reconsidered and thought of differently.

5. I think that when i moved from Shelburne to Richmond in 6th grade it had a large impact on me. My daily life pattern changed because I could no longer just take the bus home from school and i had to get up early so that i could get to school online. It was hard still having to go to school in Shelburne because it is farther away then CVU is, but i wanted to stay with the same people and stay in the same district. I really wanted to go to CVU because i knew my sister really liked it so my dad was able to get me school choice and i was so happy. Last year was better because my sister was a senior here and she was able to bring me to and from school so my dad didn't have to. But now that she's in college i have to take the bus. i have gotten into a pattern and i am very happy the the bus can take me most of the way home. i only have to walk a little bit. But it will be so nice next year when i have my license because then i will be able to drive myself to school.
I think that this experience has made me a more independent person because sometimes i had to figure out how i was going to get home. I like my friends but i felt bad when i had to go over to their homes after school. i felt like i was intruding. When i can drive myself life will be so much easier because i won't have to depend on my dad or other people to pick my up.
