As part of their curriculum, students delve into literature with the exciting adventures of Percy Jackson, a demigod navigating the complexities of Greek mythology in modern times.
This immersive reading experience not only captivates their imagination but also serves as a bridge to understanding the historical context of Ancient Greece. To bring their learning to life, students culminate their studies by undertaking a creative project: the creation of their city-state. This hands-on activity challenges them to apply their knowledge of Ancient Greek society, governance, and culture, fostering a deeper appreciation for the complexities of civilization-building in the ancient world. Through this multidimensional approach, sixth graders not only absorb historical facts but also develop critical thinking skills and creative expression, making their exploration of Ancient Greece a memorable and holistic learning experience.
