What I did in my ancient Greece's project? .3

Today is Wednesday and there is no hummanities class but I really need to
catchup
, so I decided to do five cards:
-one card about religion.
-two cards about social classes.
-one card about jobs.
-one card about general information.
I think that I did more for social classes because I felt like that area needed more work on it. However I worked on all other areas: Religion, Jobs and General Information because I wanted to make sure for who ever will be reading my essay on Ancient Greece will understand the maximum of what I am covering.
Today I used the following site
http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/primaryhistory/ancient_greeks/
This site was very usefull, and I took the maximum information from it to answer a few of my questions. There were more references, I'll make sure I will put all the required topics towards the end of the essay. The essay is going to be 1400 words and I will make sure to have enough cards to do that many words, but I will try to go above by the information I am going to research later in the week or maybe next week.

What I did in my ancient Greece's project? .2

To date I was able to finish most of my questions in my folder; My 2 favorites were "what were some of the most famous myth that the Greeks made?" and "Who were the most important and honorable Gods, Titans, and Heroes in Ancient Greece"
I was interested in these questions because there was interesting facts about greek mythology as Gods, Heroes, and Titans. I finished all the Religion, and the Jobs, but still I need to answer one more question on social classes which is "What is the difference between the Sparta and the Athens?" So im going to answer that the next lesson of Humanities.

What I did in my ancient Greece's project?

During this week, I did a blue card on my first question related to Jobs in ancient Greece (Was Slavery the most popular job in ancient Greece?). I got a lot of research even before we started this project so, I will be able to finish all the questions on time. The information I got from the books in my school's library, were very useful for answering my question (Slavery was the most popular jobs at that time because the ancient Greeks needed to build temples for their Gods so they needed lots of labors to work for them).
What really caught my attention was the myths created in ancient Greece. They were all about Gods, Titans, Heroes, and other stuff. The Greeks were always keen to represent their Gods! for example: when they go on a quest, they always take 3 people with them to resemble the 3 main Gods, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades.
The Myths that the Greeks Made are very Astonishing!
