One of our reading texts this week is Poros of Malia. We collaborativly worked as a group to unpack the story. We used the comment tool to write our responses to the questions. This text takes place in Olympia, Greece, 356 BC. Poros competes in the 192 metre sprint. It shows how Poros focuses on the race and ignores all of the distractions around him. The question that I responded to was “Why did Poros think the others would laugh at his statue?”.
