Greek: Lesson Plans
| The Alphabet is Historic
Curiculum Unit overview. The youngest and newest writers often have a deep interest in the origin of writing
itself. These lessons will follow the history of our alphabet.
Lesson 1: The Alphabet is Historic: The Phoenicians and the Beginnings of the Alphabet
Lesson 2: The Alphabet is Historic: The Greek Alphabet: more familiar than you think! Lesson 3: The Alphabet is Historic: The Roman Alphabet is our Alphabet Lesson 4: The Alphabet is Historic: The Phoenicians, the Greeks, the Romans, and Us |
| The Olympic Medal: It's All Greek to Us!
This lesson plan uses an EDSITEment-created Greek alphabet animation to help students "decode" the inscription on the Olympic medal. Because the
Olympic medal is both a familiar and mysterious object for students, it presents
an ideal prompt to build basic literacy in the Greek alphabet. Thus, this lesson
uses the Athens 2004 medal inscription as an elementary "text" to help students
practice reading Greek and to help reinforce the link between ancient Greek
culture and the Olympic games.
