Braxton's class has been studying Ancient Rome this month. He loved learning about Rome and we loved hearing about it everyday during dinner. What a fun subject. Today was their Ancient Rome celebration. The kids got to dress up as a famous Roman and had tell a little about that person. Braxton was Jupiter (aka Zeus). He was really nervous that he would forget his lines, but he did a great job. They also had an authentic Roman meal with Little Caesar's Pizza, grapes, Capri Suns and cheese.
"I am the GREAT GOD JUPITER!! I am ruler of all gods and goddess. I live on the mighty Mount Olympus and rule over all the kingdoms of heaven and earth. I control the sky, lightening, thunder and rain. The Romans gave me credit if they were healthy and rich. My Greek name is Zeus. I am married to Juno and my brothers are Neptune and Pluto. I have many sons and daughters. I use lightening bolts as weapons, so DON'T MAKE ME ANGRY!!!" (I caught myself saying this today while I was standing at the sink doing the dishes).
