In this lesson, you learned about the city-states of Athens and Sparta. Suppose that you are an Athenian visiting Sparta, or a Spartan who has received permission to visit Athens. You must write a letter to a friend at home telling him or her about your visit. Although Athens and Sparta were both Greek and shared some common elements of Greek culture, they were also very different.

How were Sparta and Athens alike? How were they different? Be sure to include details about how the city you are visiting and how it compares to your city.

young teenage girl of the citizen class
slave
boy of the citizen class

Step 2: Choose Your Destination
Second, you must choose one of the following destinations:

an Athenian visiting Sparta
a Spartan visiting Athens

be written from the perspective of a slave, young teenage boy or girl citizen, solider or wealthy citizen
be at least two paragraphs
