Beware of Greeks Bearing Gifts – Great Big List of Ancient Greece Freebies

I always try to kick off our unit studies with some hands-on ideas and I love rounding up great freebies and organizing them here for us.

Great Big List of Ancient Greece Freebies

This way you and I both can plod along and choose some of them to do or create our own.

So today, to kick off our newest unit study, Ancient Greece, I couldn’t resist the saying Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes or Beware of Greeks Bearing Gifts to use for my great big list of Ancient Greece freebies to share with you.

Corny I know, but I love the saying.
