There were many studies that Athens had as classes.One is that they were taught 2 main things.They were taught Homer, a famous poet.The other thing was that they learned how to play the Iyre.They also learned math, reading, and writing.They thought a healthy mind was as similar as a healthy body so they did alot of P.E. Those were the diferent studies Athens learned.
ReplyDeleteThe three classes that I found that would be important to the Ancient Athenians would be the following: public speaking, reading and writing. These forms of classes would be helpful to create citizens who could speak and write well. This would be beneficial for Athenians who were thinking about doing public office and being leaders in Ancient Athens.

the 3 classes i found were p.e., music and arithomatics. Music was important to Athens because they needed to knoiw how to like for example attract women to the sweet sound of music. The other one i found was p.e. they found this interesting because they thought that a healthy body means a healthy mind. The mind is excercied mind helps pump blood to our minds. In p.e. they: threw javilens, ran, and wrestled. They thought arithomatics were important to become good men. These were the 3 classes that i found in my resurch.

ReplyDeleteAncient Athens valued many types of classes. Three examples of classes that The Greeks would have valued were physical education, music, and reading and writing. Physical education would have been important for the Greeks to develop strong bodies and remain healthy. Music was important for the Athenians to produce inner peace and develop eloquence. Reading and writing were important for Athenians to better communicate with each other. This form of education inspired Greeks (Athenians) to become leaders and amazing public speakers.

Ancient Athens valued many classes. One of the classes that they valued is physical education they may not have valued it that much but they still valued it. They believed that physical fittness was also as important as mental fittness. Another type of class that they have valued is musical class. The Athens partly focused on music. The Athenians were tought how to sing and play other musical instraments. The last type would be reading and writing. The Athenians valued this because this prepared them for leadership.In conclusion tha Athenian cultuire valued many forms of education.

The three classes that I personally think that are most important to the development of Athenian society are the following. I chose physical education because a healthy body will result in a strong and healthy mind as well. Also, I chose philosophy because Athenians will know how to solvbe problems,and so they know what right from wrong is. My final class that i chose is architechture. I chose this because the Athenians and other Greek city states are the origins of architechture. Without them, we wouldn't know how to make buildings now in the 21st century. Those are the classes I think are important to the development of Athenian society.
