Prepare for Educational Principles!

As some of you know, I've been pretty sick the past few days. Fortunately, I'm feeling a little better today. As part of my down time, I've been going through lesson plans and educational theories as well as curriculum structure. I knew I needed to break from this when I started to watch 300 and automatically devised a lesson plan for the Persian messenger. The teacher is King Leonidas (on the left) and the Persian messenger (on the right.)

Lesson Plan
Objectives: After completing this lesson, the student will be able to:

• Identify that this is Sparta, not madness.
• Be able to find earth and water, using the teacher guided, self-discovery method.
• Understand and develop tolerances for the differences in other cultures and as a result become more sensitive to people who are different than him.
  

Lastly, the student will be able to

• Understand that showing off the skulls of conquered kings and insulting queens are not adequate ways of negotiating with foreign cities.
