Sorry to be missing class again... believe me, I would much rather spend time with you than be sick. Ew.
In class today, you will watch part 2 of The Greeks: Crucible of Civilization. This is where is gets good. You'll see the story of Pheidippides; the wars with Darius, Xerxes and the Persians; the brilliant leader Themistocles; the mysterious Oracle of Delphi; the battle in the Straits of Salamis; and why the Golden Age of Greece was so awesome. The link is here, as well as on the sidebar to the right. If one of you can get your computer hooked up to the LCD and some speakers, that would be great; if this proves impossible, you should all watch on your own. Fill out the worksheet as you go, and take additional notes where you think necessary. What you don't finish in class today, you should finish over the weekend. As always, you should blog about today's class.
Be nice to your sub, and I hope to see you next week.
