Alexander and Military Matters

""

=Overview=

This theme examines Alexander as a general, with respect to the various battles and campaigns that he waged in Persia. For much of this theme you will work with at least one other student and become the 'teacher'. This will involve becoming experts in one event of your choice and then presenting this information in some form (again you have a choice) for the rest of the students to learn from.

Before we get into that we need to start with a more traditional approach in examining what Alexander inherited from Philip. The following work should only take one hour + homework time.
