The Introduction to Greek Exam
-
Below are the components of the packet of materials distributed at the
Pre-Institute Workshop at the 61st Annual Institute of the American Classical
League in Durham, NH, June 26-27, 2008. This workshop neither expects or
requires any knowledge (or recollection) of Greek. The materials
are to help teachers who want to introduce Greek to their program or school.
It is arranged around the syllabus for the "Introduction to Greek" level
of the National Greek Exam, a syllabus designed specifically for teachers
and students starting Greek but who do not have a full class to commit
to the language.
