Publisher's Description of Song School Greek Teacher's Edition (No DVD)
The Song School Greek Program is a lively and gentle introduction to Koine Greek—the language of the New Testament. One of the mother tongues of the English language, Greek is also a perfectly orderly language, ideal to help us understand the structure of any language and learn how a language works. This program is an excellent prequel to our grammar-based, upper-elementary Greek for Children series.
Are you concerned about teaching Greek? In addition to the entire content of the Song School Greek student text, the Song School Greek Teacher's Edition includes answer keys, teaching suggestions, and an instructional streaming video for parents and teachers that will teach you the basics of the language.
Song School Greek is engaging and fun, gently
introducing students to Koine Greek. Weekly lessons incorporate catchy songs
that introduce basic vocabulary, writing practice, stories, games, and fun
activities. Audio Access is included with the consumable Student Book. The Teacher
Edition includes the answer keys, and teaching suggestions. The songs are
also available separately in downloadable/streaming format. For extra
vocabulary practice, consider the Greek Beak Match Flashcard Game. This

appearing in small upside down type); use this set to play the suggested games,
or simply use them as traditional flashcards. Song School Greek is
