Today in class we did our first mini research. We
researched some things that were put up on the board. For example there was
Agora, Polis, the importance of the year 508 BC for the ancient greeks, Socrates,
death of Socrates, the Socrates method, and others I didn’t get to. Agora is a
public open space used for assemblies and markets. Polis is a city in ancient Greece,
especially as considered in its ideal form for philosophical purposes. The
reason why the year on 508 BC is extremely important to the ancient greeks is
because that day democracy is introduced in Athens by Cleisthenes. He established
a constitution and is often called the “father of Athenian Democracy”. Also
people in this year revolted against their ruler. Socrates was a greek philosopher.
And we had to research the death of Socrates. He was convicted of corrupting the
youth of Athens and introducing strange gods and was sentenced to death by
drinking. And the last thing ive gotten to was the socratic method. It’s a form
of cooperative argumentative dialogue.
Today in human geography it twas the most perfect temperature! I wasn’t too hot and I wasn’t too cold. I was just right. It was kind of like the three little bears. When I walked in My teacher Mr. Schick told me about a snow storm named Grayson. Different spelling but the same name as mine! And the storm is JUST LIKE ME! Just going around… ruining people’s lives. Yep sounds like me! But today in class after having a whole day to work on this “worlds leaders” project we got to notes on the extended information our teacher Mr. Schick found on his own. As we took some notes some of the leaders of these countries we learned about had very interesting background stories. Like the president of India was in one of the lowest groups in india. And another that was probably the weirdest was the france president who married his high school teacher!!! LIKE EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
