D'Aulaires Greek Myths Memoria Press Classical Studies

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
