Come and join us as we explore the core myths of Ancient Greece! Each week we will focus on a different myth in a fun and interactive way (eg the Twelves Labours of Hercules, Athena and Arachne, etc). The course aims to provide learners with foundational knowledge of Greek Myths and examine how important these myths were both then and now! Learners will develop literacy skills as we read through the legends together and identify key words, as well as and critical thinking skills by examining recurring themes, ideas, and interpretations of each tale. We will also explore a different element of Ancient Greek history or culture in connection to the stories, including the Greek alphabet, root words, and art. And of course, learners will also have the chance to respond creatively through art, acting or writing in special projects!
