The girls did not go to school in Athens, instead they stayed home and learned from their mother and the slaves. While the boys did go to school and and from a teacher, or more commonly a private tutor. They were taught to read, write count play the lyre, dance, and poetry. They did not use paper they mostly used scrolls or they memorized their lessons. In Sparta education was less complex than it was in Athens, in Sparta kid went to a military school. In Sparta at age 7 boy were taken from their families and sent to military school where they stayed. Girls were taught athletics to defend themselves. In school boys were taught to survive from cold and starvation and they were also taught to read and write. In school you were not aloud to be afraid.
