AP World Alexander the Great

Ah, Macedonians in the fall...Read the brief stories about Alexander the Great that are posted in the google document. (it is a .PDF file) to get a sense of his personality.  We will spend a little time with Michael Woods on his way to re-trace Alexander's route next week.  Read pages 168-172 and 245-254 in the textbook as well to give you a bit more information on the Hellenistic world that he lived in and what happened after he died.

Next week the Axial Age thinkers go to Starbucks activity is due.  We will wrap up Alexander and then take a trip back over the political events of the regions (China, India, Persia and Greece) that are key to the Classical Age and take a quiz on the philosophers before we dive into Rome.
