Today was my first real day of western civ and today I took notes on Ancient Greece. I learned about ancient Greece in 8th grade so I remember somethings but others I dont. We also picked our seats today and I Got one of the firsts pick. I like my seat and cant wait to really get started in western civ. Here are some of my notes that I took today. " In Athens a new form of government developed- democracy in which citizens exercise their own power." "Alexander the great spread greek culture through Asia." Those are just some of the notes that I took from the book. Here are some notes from the power point we watched. "Great civilizations/ Key rivers: Egypt/nile, India/Indus River, Mesopotamia/Tigres and Euphrates." " Greece is a very mountainous country in fact 3/4 of the country are covered in mountains." These were just some of the notes that I learned today. So far Western Civ is great.
