A Focus on Ancient Greece

This quarter in World History, we are mainly focusing on Ancient Greece. Two cities-states that we have spent the most time discovering about were Athens and Sparta.  Both cities were very different in the way they lived.  Some of the differences included the education, government, and roles of women.  We created a children’s book to show these differences using the online program Story Jumper.  The students worked in groups using Google Presentation to show how Persia grew into this Powerful Empire and the impact of the war on Greece.


We will be beginning the second part of the Quarter with the lasting impacts of Ancient Greece.
