I need help starting off a letter. This is a part of what im supposed to write down; "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." I dont need anyone to write the entire letter for me, but i need someone to help me start it off.
Sparta was focused on military training, and Athens on academics. Maybe you ran into Socrates the philosopher in Athens, and he started asking you odd questions. Or perhaps you noticed children being matched out of Sparta as you entered, possibly to be made to (if the rumors are true) fight wolves in the wilderness. You likely noticed the red plumes on Spartan helmets, and the blue on Athenian ones if any.
