This week we learned about Oedipus and the last scene. We learned how he gauged his eyes out because he had found out that he married and had kids with his mother and he had killed his father. In that story I learned that you can't change your destiny when it is already set. We also started reading about our tragedy project and we chose our partners for our writings.

This week we learned about Oedepis and his life. We learned how he married and had kids with his mom and how he killed his father. In the story we had to read, we learned that oracle told/ predicted what was going to happen later on in his life. We also had to write a in class essay about the book that we had been reading for the past month. I wrote about the book I read, Memoirs of a teenage amnesiac, this was a very interesting girly book that shows us the life of a young girl who hit her head and lost her memory. The essay wasn't really hard because all you had to do was answer a question that my group had written before. 

This week we have learned and talked about Socrates. We learned about his life and the things he accomplished. We learned how he influenced the young mines of teenagers and how he made them question the world. We learned how he was killed. He had to drink some kind of poison and it didn't kill him instant, they made him suffer for a while and then he died. After his death, people realized what he was saying and how he was like a "good" person to have around since he made them question. We also had to read a bit. We read the trial of Socrates death and a Crito reading. The readings were a little difficult to understand but you could get the message.
