A Feast and Debate Party
Posted by Laura Lindquist-Materna on 10/19/2018
Yesterday we enjoyed a traditional Greek feast while debating some new information about a typical day is Greece. Did you know that after a woman gave birth, the husband was to decide whether the the family would keep the child or abandon it? As you can imagine, facts like this led to a very spirited debate by all. Students learned how debate forums shaped government, led to changes, and even helped establish and review laws in ancient Greece. Student are making good connections about today's world and ancient civilizations. Next week we will be diving in to Greek art.
