Presenting

Today in western civilization class with Mr. Schick my group: Myself, Mert, Rafay, and Logan presented our project. In our project we printed out pictures of The Parthenon, Poseidon, The Odyssey, and Trojan Horse. Then, we taped toothpicks behind the pictures and stuck them to there designated location. We also got four soldiers which we cut the guns and binoculars off of because they didn’t have them back then and colored two soldiers blue for Athens, and two soldiers red for Sparta. We hot glued them to the map so they wouldn’t move. We also made paper boats and hot glued them to the map. The map was already hard enough to do, so we just made the boats and put it on the water in the map. We made a key with Spartan (red) and Athenian (blue) wins. Black resembles a tie, which was in the Battle of 300 Champions. This took a lot of work and and a lot of research to pull this off.

Group Project

Today in Western Civilization we worked on our group project. I took notes about the spartans and how they went into the military as young as the age of 7.  The children would be removed from their parents’ homes and began the “agoge.” The agoge was a state-sponsored training regimen that was designed to mold these young boys into skilled warriors and moral citizens. The agoge was designed in a way that would make these young boys resistant to hardships such as unbearable cold weather, hunger, and an excruciating amount of pain. Unlike the Athenian army, Spartans were more strict for the army. A Spartan man, on average, would complete the main phase of the agoge around age 21.

test day

Today in western civilization we had a test. The test was fairly easy, however he did let us use our blog so that helped a lot. After everyone finished up the test we read the big book under our desks and we took notes for the rest of the class.                    And yea, that pretty much sums up what I did in western civilization today.
