Reflection on Unit One (Ancient and Classical Greece)

For our first unit this year, the eighth grade students of ISB studied ancient and classical Greece. We, as a group learned a lot about how the geography affected the development, as well as learning about all of the various Gods and Goddesses in Greek mythology. We also learned about the rise and fall of the country, as well as the start of Democracy and the Olympic games. Over all, I think that it was an exiting unit and I enjoyed almost all of it; but I think that next year they should also learn about the great Trojan war because I think that that is an exiting time to learn about.
