This year I learned about outline notes and how to write a formal paper. In History class I learned about prehistory, archaeology, Mesopotamia, Indus valley, ancient Egypt, bronze age Aegean, Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. The thing that will help me most in the future is outline notes for writing papers. I am proudest of the essays that I did. My favorite part of Ancient history class was the Ancient Greece Unit. This class was not like I excepted it to be because it was a lot more fun than I thought it would be.

Our last unit of the year was the Ancient Rome unit which was my favorite unit we did this year. Some of the important events we learned during this unit would include in 753 BC when Rome was Founded and it started the beginning of the monarchy. The next important date was when the republic was created in 509 BC and it ended the monarchy. Another important date was the assassination of Julius Caesar in 44 BC. In 27 BC the republic ended, so the empie and Pax Romana begun with the reign of Octavian. In AD 476 the Last emperor was desposed and in AD 1453 the Byzantine Empire fell to the Ottoman Empire. I invite you to go to my Ancient Rome page to read my formal research paper over the Five Good Emperors.

Introduction to Ancient Greece

One of our last units that we did in Ancient history class was the Ancient Greece unit. Some of my favorite topics in this subject would include all the battles that took place back then. Another topic would be the trial of Socrates and how crazy it was that he would die for something so little. I invite you to check out my Socrates essay on my Ancient Greece page.
