You and your partner are Jennings Senior High foreign exchange students.....
......who will be the first exchange students
ever to be sent back in time to live with a family in ancient Greece for
10 days! You will stay with a family in Athens AND Sparta for 4 days
in each city-state. You will be observing your life and your "family's"
life while you are there. Click
here for a list of Greek names you can use for your family.
Your observations must be made each day

| *Day 4: | The Peloponnesian War (What happened between these two city-states?) |
You will need to do research using your textbooks and online. (Ch. 5 Green Book/Ch.4 Blue Book)
Weekend Summary: You will be able to individually answer these questions by writing a page paper after you get home.....
Would you rather be Athenian or a Spartan? Explain. (One page typed paper)
Which philosopher do you agree with or disagree with? Why? (One page typed paper)
Create a Venn Diagram comparing and contrasting
