Ancient History for Middle School, Part One with Inshal Chenet
- Summary
-
History is all about “story”. Register for this course to help your middle schooler to better understand the ancient world. We will work together to form an appreciation for the Ancients and learn from them
Course description: History, as Herodetus says, is the praise of great men of the past. To understand history is to know the stories of these great men, to see the patterns in their stories, and to better understand human nature. The true developments of pagan antiquity will be examined, as well as the shortcomings of the ancients, in preparation for the Incarnation of the Son of God.
Class time will be spent hearing engaging stories of history, reinforced by readings between classes. Students will also be writing a short summary of the story in class, to better retain the material.
