Civilizations adapt to their environment by exploring new solutions to unique problems.
Groovy Greeks
The Greeks invented the Greek Alphabet because they needed a way to talk and teach about what was going on in History. They also needed to tell morals or we would need some way to send letters to tell what was happening in a war that might be close and might attack.
Rotten Romans
The Romans invented the Roman Numbers to have some way to count and be able to wright numbers on paper or in stories wear they used the Greeks alphabet.These Roman numbers have helped us in a great deal. Without the Romans we wouldn't have any numbers today.
Archimedes
Archimedes invented the compound pulley.This is important to the world because some things that were heavy they could lift them more easily! This is still very useful today large machines and in some small machines to!
Archimedes Screw
Archimedes Is Famous For
Archimedes is famous for creating the water screw. Archimedes had created lots of other things to, but I choose this because I thought it was very interesting that the water screw has been around for so long. It also was interesting because Archimedes was around in Ancient Greece and the water screw is still in use every were to help move water move upward to get nice cold and clean water.
My Favorite Parts of the Unit
My favorite parts of the unit was the Pentathlon. The Javelin throw ,the chariot race , and the discus throw was my top favorite games. I choose these because I thought these were really creative ideas and these taught me what sort of things the Greeks did in their Olympics!
Coolest Things I Leaned
The four coolest thing I learned were learning that the Romans created a white wedding dress.I also thought this to be very fascinating magnifying glass was created by the Romans.This was the most mischievous of all of these things,knowing what the Romans did ,they took some of the ideas of most groovy Greeks and made their inventions better. I also learned the Greeks took apart dead people to find out how or why that person past away. I found that interesting because we could have found out some of our sicknesses from the Greeks theory.I found these things really very interesting.
