The people who were being taught were girls and boys, with boys being taught so they could be powerful and strong. On the other hand, girls were taught so they could be housewives.

They were educated differently because only boys were allowed to vote. Because of this boys learned how to do things to help strength, power, and intelligence. (This would help them share their ideas and get people to vote in their favor.) Girls were not allowed to vote or be part of the democracy so they learned how to do things around the house, so they could take care of the house for their husbands.

In this time, books were rare and expensive so usually, if you got your hands on one you would have to read it out loud and memorize it. They would also use writing tablets. Boys would start off being taught by their mothers or slaves. Many would also learn how some instruments work, a common one being the lyre.
