We are a group of 7th graders from Colorado who want to practice our writing and communication skills. We are excited to expand the walls of our classroom and collaborate with other classes! Please leave us comments and your blog URL, so we can respond back to you!
Greece
Learning about Greece so far has been pretty interesting. I don't know that much about Greece yet. What I do know is that most of what we have today like governments, art, and what we know about science, comes from Greece. Also in Greece they call their city-states a polis.
What we have been doing in humanities is that we have been gruoped into five different city-states, Corinth, Athens, Megara, Sparta, and Argos. We do different simulations, that are simular to what they did back then. At the end of each day we add up points, and at the end of all of the simulations, whom ever has the most points wins. GO ATHENS!!!!
