History of American Involvement with the Phillippines

In the High School History class, we learned about the Phillipines and the history and independence of the Phillippines. We learned about the war and what Philippines did to gain their independence. One important general, by the name of Douglas MacArthur, was an American  and field marshal of the Philippine Army. We also saw how the Arnis fighting was formed and what Arnis fighting was.

Arnis Weapons
 

The highschoolers got to know how to use the Filipino Arnis fighting method with Mr. Smith. I thought it was very interesting to see how Mr. Smith taught the students in the class. It was a fun and interactive class, and I think that if i was in that class, I would learn a lot from it. Another thing that I thought was interesting was, was the history room itself. It was very colorful and the walls were covered with different flags from different countries. The walls were also covered with many interesting and colorful paintings from different countries too. Mr. Smith also had a large collection of different kinds of weapons and objects to show us.

The Characters

Dionysus                                                              Euripides

The Frogs by Aristophanes

The Frogs by Aristophanes is a greek comedy play. It is about the Athenian society in that day. Aristophanes wrote this play when Athens was at war with Sparta for over twenty-five years and it was produced in Athens in 405 BC. This play talks about the characters: Dionysus, Xanthias, Haracles, Charon, Aeacus, Plthane, Hostess, Pluto Presephone, Aeschylus, and Euripides.

Summary of the Play:

Euripides, who wanted to claim the tragedian Chair from Aescylus caused a problem in the Underworld. Pluto, the god of the Underworld, is distrupted and annoyed by the uprise and he sends Dionysus to judge which poet was better. Dionysus pretends and dresses like Hercules and goes to the poets to judge the problem. Later on in the play, Dionysus confronts the two poets and judges which poet had better poetry. Dionysus becomes very amused when he sees the two poets fighting with the words from the poetry. At the end, Dionysus makes Aeschylus the winner. Euripides becomes very devastated, and in the end, everyone left the underworld.
