Social Studies 6th Grade
Here is my Social Studies Greece Speech Project. In this assignment, each student were to be assigned a topic; for ex, whether Socrates should be put to death or not, whether Athens should go to war with the Spartans, or whether the Athens build the Parthenon. The topic that I received was whether "we" Athens should build the Parthenon or not and we were assigned to write a speech about what was our choice and why. I chose that the Parthenon should not be built for several reasons.
I chose to include this assignment in my Social Studies portfolio because for this project out of all S.S. projects, this is one of my favorite projects that I wrote. I think I wrote a pretty satisfying speech in my opinion. And also, in these speeches, we were saying these words as if we are "Athens".
From this assignment, I learned that using an organizing tool can really help you. In this project, if I had not used the organizer, it would have been difficult for me to construct everything. Or just simply, I wouldn't be organized.
