today in class we got back our ancient greek test. I got an 83, and pretty satisfied in the results. I felt like I failed when i got took it. We went over it in class it took both mods. We have a project on Ancient Greece. Everyone has a different topic. I have Alexanders conquests. It is about Alexander the Great, and how he was the ruler and epic fighter. At one time he ruled most of the known world. Basically from Asia Minor to Egypt, by the time he was 35.

Today in class we had mods 2 and 3. We continued learning about Greece. At first we were reading our notes from the movie that we watched friday. Then we took over from a power point that you had made. We got to the background of Greece. We have not gotten into the battles yet or any of the feuds between the city states. You showed us a map on how far apart sparta and Athens was, and the other city stated were separated.

today in class we started learning about Ancient Greece, and since you started taking a course you decided to read us the story of Greece vs. Persia. I love Ancient Greece, i think its interesting. Every student got to do one subject about greece. I got the battle of thermoplyae, in which 300 soldiers held 1/4 of a million other soldiers for three days. The Spartans fought with there king Leonidas, against Xerxes the ruler of Persia.

today in class we went over ancient egypt. Were learning about the pyramids, the Nile, hieroglyphics, and transportation. They would know that the nile would flood and leave rich silt. It is good for growing crops. The nile was one of the ways the Egyptians survived. It is the longest river in the world.The sphinx guarded the pyramids. It had the body of a lion with the head of a king. But the nose fell of years later. We have a test next week on ancient Egypt and the recent revolt on the president Mubarak. We talked to your Egyptian friend Sarah.
