Before we started class, Cody and Mr. Schick had a little rap battle. It was getting pretty intense, so intense, Mr. Schick put down his paper clip. After that was over, we basically took the whole class to go over the test (but mostly the essays) again because some were at retreat yesterday. We still had one more DING to go through. We also still had a lot more questions and confusion.
We mainly talked about Socrates and his trial and his death, because some people were still a little confused. Someone said that Socrates was killed for disrespecting the democracy, when, in fact, he was very supportive of the democracy. He probably would've gone with his friends when they said they could get him out of him dying if he disrespected the democracy. He was actually put to death by forced suicide of Hemlock poisoning for corrupting the youth of Athens and disrespecting the Gods. He said that he should be rewarded instead of put to death for what he has done.
