Description
The Greek for Children Primer A Answer Key features the actual, full-size pages from Greek for Children Primer A, with answers to quizzes, exercises, and worksheets in bold print.
Understandable, engaging, creative, and in-depth, the Greek for Children Primer A Program will introduce your students to Koine Greek. Why Greek? Like Latin, Koine Greek will aid students in critical thinking and help them to develop a strong understanding of grammar. Many English words are derived from ancient Greek, and students will especially see the benefits of learning Greek when studying science and medicine. Last, but hardly least, Koine Greek is the language of the New Testament, and the study of the original language will gradually unveil the richness, depth, and beauty of the New Testament message.

Q: Why are there pages missing from my answer key?
A: Our answer keys only include those pages from the student edition that have answers or teacher's notes on them. All other pages from the student edition are excluded to reduce the page count of the answer key, which enables us to provide our customers with the answer keys at a lower cost.
Greek for Children is a program designed to introduce elementary students to Koine {koy-nay} biblical Greek encouraging proficiency through classical methodologies like chants, grammar, and vocabulary. This is not a modern, spoken Greek course. Greek for Children is a user-friendly option for parents with no previous Greek experience. Instruction is clearly delivered in bite-size pieces, reinforced, and reviewed. There will be 3 levels in the future - A, B, and C.
Primer A Student Worktext covers:
- the Greek alphabet
- verbs - present, imperfect, future tenses, "being"
- nouns – 1st and 2nd declension; accusative, dative, and genitive cases
- adjectives - 1st and 2nd declension, sentence patterns, and prepositions
There are 33 lessons, 1 per week, (29 chapter lessons and 4 introductory lessons on the Greek alphabet). Although the alphabet instruction is thorough, the use of the Greek Alphabet Code Cracker by the same publisher is recommended for additional review and repetition.
Each chapter lesson starts with a Memory Page that includes a Bible verse written in Greek with pronunciation and translation, chants, and vocabulary review. The Grammar Page provides instruction and is followed by the Worksheet Page that includes translation, chants, grammar, and derivatives before ending the chapter with a Quiz Page that includes the same. By the way, these "Pages" are usually multiple pages long. Every fourth chapter is review. Although not labeled as appendices, there are reference charts (parts of speech), and glossaries (by chapter and by alphabet) in the back of the text.
The Teacher’s Edition provides all student pages (full size) with answers filled in plus teaching tips and explanations. Here is a sample sequence for teaching a chapter over 5 days.
What makes this course so easy on the parent/teacher is the professionally done video and audio instruction. Available via Online Streaming or as DVDs (five of them, with a Chant CD to remember grammar rules) instruction is lesson by lesson through the course. The format is simple: instructor explaining, using a whiteboard for greater illustration.

The text has been expanded to provide more practice. Each chapter now includes at least 10 sentences to translate. Chapter verses have more depth and there are additional grammar exercises.
