By the sixth grade some study of early civilizations should have been made. Th ancient Greeks and Romans have contributed many concepts concerning law, beauty, architecture and philosophy to our culture, Their presence is also feLt in our literature and many traces of their thought keep popping up i our customs and traditions.
The main purpose of the teaching outline that follows is to introduce the ancient Greeks and Romans to students so that they will have some knowledge of the subject when they begin to study it at a higher level in the upper grades.
References in the Teachers’ Bibliography will provide teachers with a means of filling in the gaps and increasing their own knowledge of the subject matter.
