Classics in Action

Beschreibung

Classics is one of the most varied and interdisciplinary of all subjects; it includes literature, history, philosophy, art and archaeology. There is growing interest among teachers in the subject, and recent studies have shown that learning Latin and/or Greek can have a positive impact on student outcomes in English and literacy. Jessica Dixon and Arlene Holmes-Henderson showcase ideas from their own teaching experience, plus innovative examples from a range of schools, to provide strategies for teaching Latin, Greek, Classical Civilisation and Ancient History that will enrich, enliven and extend your teaching practice. Inspiring and eye-opening, this will be an enjoyable and useful read for all teachers who are currently teaching, training to teach, or interested in teaching classical subjects and related disciplines, in primary or secondary schools.
