The famous coinage of Athens, the 'Athenian Owl',
bearing the first three letters of the name 'Athens.'

Greek prepositions illustrated by mice and uninvited guest

Learning Greek is an adventure into one of the most influential languages in human history, certainly in the history of the Western World. This is the language of the New Testament and the language in which the very first musings on the meaning and value of democracy were written down. It is the language of drama, philosophy, medicine, science, architecture, culture, and more. It is hard to overestimate the impact of the language, even though some would argue that the high point of Greek civilization lasted a mere 50 years in the middle of the 5th century BC. This civilization has impacted the world around us in far more ways than you probably recognize right now. The greater your understanding of the Greeks, their language and their world, the more you'll see that they were responsible for much of our own culture today.

Getting Started
Please follow these instructions to make sure you're ready when class starts.

View the Greek 1 Orientation HERE
Link to the online classroom
Make sure you have your textbook!
Follow the instructions that Mr. Barr sends to you in the pre-semester instruction email.
Learn your Greek alphabet - there is a document below for practicing writing your letters, a link to the Lukeion Greek Alphabet web page, and you should receive a link to a recording of our free online workshop on the topic. (Note that we will pronounce a few letters differently than the section at the beginning of your book.)
Go to Keyman.com to install the Keyman app, then install the Greek Classical keyboard
Install the "IFAO-Grec Unicode" font on your computer
Take the Pre-Semester Quiz until you score over an 85 on it. You have 5 attempts. You should start early and study between attempts.

The Class Email List
Your instructor uses your email on file in our registration database to email both you and your parent. It is your responsibility to let us know if your email changes, or if we are not using the correct one to correspond with you.

Homework Guidelines

ALWAYS spend time learning your new vocabulary and grammar BEFORE you do your homework. You'll be amazed at how much better your homework goes if you do this first. Here's how you do VERY GOOD HOMEWORK:
1. VOCABULARY practice first
2. GRAMMAR study second
3. HOMEWORK reinforces the first two
Cramming doesn't work with languages. You should spend time EVERY DAY on your work. Be sure to work on vocabulary DAILY.
TRANSLATION: You should ALWAYS try to work from memory first, but if you cannot remember a word, you MAY refer to your vocabulary. If you get in the habit of referring to a printed vocabulary list instead of using your memory, it will show on your quizzes, and ultimately in your enjoyment and understanding of Greek.
Complete your assigned translations and exercises in a separate document to prevent losing any of your work; then copy and paste them into the appropriate form below.
There is no limit to the number of times you can enter the homework activity before the deadline passes, but you should only "submit" your homework ONCE. When you submit your homework, you will see all the correct answers along with your own. Use this opportunity to review your work and note what you need more work on, but any additional submissions may be counted as cheating.
If you have any questions or experience any problems, send me a note BEFORE the deadline passes.

Fonts

The default font used in Quia (Arial Unicode MS) can be difficult to read. We will use the IFAO-Grec Unicode font. You MUST have this font installed on your computer for the Greek characters to display properly in the homework and quizzes - the link to the download page is below. Even so, Quia will use its default font on any of your answer entry boxes; I cannot change that.

Here is a picture of a sentence written in IFAO-Grec Unicode font:

Here is the same sentence being displayed by your computer in IFAO-Grec Unicode font:
ὁ Μίνως οἰκεῖ ἐν τῇ Κρήτη· βασιλεὺς δέ ἐστι τῆς νήσου.
They won't be identical in size, but they should look identical in the way the characters and accents are formed if you have the font properly installed on your computer.
