Introduction to Classical Studies: Student Guide

Memoria Press' Introduction to Classical Studies provides elementary and middle-school students with an introduction to the foundations of a classical curriculum. This course revolves around the books D'Aulaires' Greek Myths, Famous Men of Rome, and The Golden Children's Bible (not-included and sold-separately).

The goals of the Bible curriculum are to familiarize children with Scripture, help them understand biblical history & geography, and to create lasting memories of the people and events of the Bible. The Greek myths will help familiarize students with universal stories that have powerfully influenced astronomy, culture, and language. Finally, they'll gain knowledge of the history of Rome from its founding to its fall.

This student guide is organized by weekly lessons spread over two pages. The first page features room to record memory work; words to know and expressions to know for each day's reading (if applicable), checklists for art assignments, and timeline entries. Memory verses are also included. The second page features Roman History questions with blank lines on which to write the answers. Directions for assignments aren't included, as they're provided in the sold-separately teacher's guide.

30 units for a 30-week school year. 89 pages including appendix with additional materials. 2nd Edition. Grades 3-8.
