Today in west civ we watched another video about ancient
Greece. Mr. Schick wasn’t here today so we had a sub and had to go to a
different room. I think Ms. Snook was our sub but I don’t have her for anything
so I’m not sure if it was her. This video was still narrated by Liam Nelson,
who narrated the last one. Some of the answers on the worksheet that we
couldn’t find in the last video were in this video. Even though, I have already
googled pretty much all of the answers anyway. This one focused more on Pheidippides
and Pericles. It also talked about the battle at marathon, and how Pheidippides
ran all the way to Sparta from Athens to ask for help. Sparta refused to help
and later Pheidippides’s run influenced the creation of present day marathons.
It took him 2 whole days to run Sparta. Who has the ability to run for 2
straight days? I’ll tell you who! Pheidippides.
