Today's lesson focused on completing the greek mythology assignment and the Golden age of Greece. Mercer completed his greek mythology story with the character he created. He reviewed details of the end of the Persian war and the beginning of the Golden age of Greece. Mercer read that after King Xerxes burned Athens, the ruler of Athens ordered that the city be rebuilt, making it a beautiful place to live and that the Athenians encouraged visitors and thinkers to come to their marketplace or agora. Mercer spent the remainder of the class watching more facts and details about countries with active volcanos. Mercer was on task.
