Publisher's Description of D'Aulaires' Greek Myths Flashcards

This is an ideal beginning book for your child's classical education journey, regardless of age! Superbly written and illustrated, this classic introduces timeless tales that have enchanted people for thousands of years. Because they are everywhere in Western art and literature, Greek myths are the essential background for a classical education. You can hardly read Shakespeare without them!

Each of the 30 lessons in the Student Guide presents important facts to know, vocabulary, comprehension questions, and a picture review and activities section. It also points out the many references to Greek mythology in the modern world.

The Flashcards contain short descriptions on one side and the corresponding person, place, or thing on the other.


This program explores this classic of Greek mythology. There are 25 lessons with review lessons every five lessons. Students read the selected pages from D'Aulaires Book of Greek Myths, familiarize themselves with the "Facts to Know". discuss and define vocabulary words, and answer comprehension questions (written to capture the essence of the characters and the main ideas of each story, which encourage students to think about the reading and provide meaningful answers). The final "Activities" section uses the fantastic illustrations found in D'Aulaires Book of Greek Myths as a springboard for further discussion questions, asks students to mark locations from the stories on an outline map, and complete other activities such as research, discussion and compliling lists. A pronunciation guide in the back breaks down all the tricky Greek names for smoother reading.~ Steph
