Learning the Greek alphabet doesn’t have to be impossible—in fact, it can even be fun! Whether you are looking for a creative or traditional approach, these resources will help your student master letters, pronunciation, and more. Designed as an introduction to the Greek alphabet, this course from Memoria Press has three units:
- I: presentation of the Greek alphabet,
- II: reading & writing Greek, and
- III: accents, diphthongs, breathing marks, and iota subscript.
Lessons consist of the introduction of three letters
followed by a cumulative review and a quiz. The last two units do not have
separate lessons and appear to be a combination of review and introductory
application of the alphabet.
The Student Text (a consumable workbook) introduces the letters in lowercase and uppercase forms along with their English name and pronunciation. Students are given the opportunity to trace and write letters. Fill-in-the-blank questions reiterate the miscellaneous information given about each letter.
The Teacher Key is simply the student pages with answers filled in.
Desk charts include 2 reference charts: one showing each letter in upper and lowercase & the sound the letter makes, and one showing diphthongs, nasal gamma, syllables, accents, iota subscript, and breathing marks. These are made of lightweight cardstock and colored in shades of green. Wall charts show the same exact images, but in poster size. ~Sara
