Who Were These Ancient Greeks?
Background: You will prepare a standard sized poster (11”x24”) on a subject
related to ancient Greece. Your poster will be graded on the level and
quality of your research, the accuracy and organization of the information,
and the interest level of the poster. You will have class time to work on
this, but you can work on it at home or during study. Projects will be
assigned with some degree of choice, but there will not be any duplicates in a
particular class. This project is due and must be completed by March 17th.
The projects will all be related to three pillars: Doric (History,
Philosophy, Architecture, and Government), Ionic (Science, Medicine,
Mathematics, Education and Family Life), and Corinthian (Alphabet, Literature
and Drama). Some internet references are below:
