Hello! Today we took our quiz on chapter 29, Golden Age of
Athens. Students then worked on the alphablocks from yesterday on the 8
vocabulary words for chapter 31, Legacies of Ancient Greece. Students were
introduced to primary and secondary sources and then began viewing visual
documents depicting legacies of ancient Greece. We will continue this activity
tomorrow and finish up on Friday. Students also completed an exit card
explaining what they learned about both legacies and primary and secondary
sources. We have included a video on Edmodo on the Battle of Plataea, a final battle
between the Greeks and the Persians. Thsi is not homework, but it is interesting information. (3 min)
