Today in class we talked about how billy decker unfortuintially did not bring in a cake for all of us. We were all really disappointed. WE also talked about Cole, who is back in school after a injury with his eye. We talked for a while about what happened with his eye which was pretty gun. Then we really started talking about Greece. Greece is divided into city states so that means there is not just one ruler. Sparta seemed to be the most powerful because of there military. In Athens, aristicrates were normally the leaders. Pysytrasis was the one who started democracy. Athens began to trade with egyptians, etrustcans (italians) and persians. Hippias was Pysytrasis son was doing the things that his father did but then started to get paranoid like people were after him. Clythensese came in rule after Hippias and restored all of the things that Hippias destroyed. .

3/25/11

Today in class i got my project subject. I am doing the Peloponnesian War. It is a war the was fought by the Greeks in Athens against Peloponnesian. It was fought in 431 to 404 BC. It was divided into three phases. i Think i am going to make a movie of the three stages of the Peloponnesian War.  Also in class we talked about Cole and how Billy Decker is going to bake him a cake in the shape of a baseball. Then we thought that maybe it would bring back some sad memories for Cole so we are going to bake a cake in the shape of a Spartan head so then Alyssa can bring in some swords for her project and then slash the Spartans head.
