Also, look at my second free Ancient Greece Lapbook and you’ll love my page History Games for more fun ideas. This is my first Ancient Greece lapbook and unit study.
Because there is so much to cover about Ancient Greece, I have now created Ancient Greece Lapbook 2 and this game is part of that free download.

6 Living History Books about Ancient Greece
You'll love this roundup of living history books about Ancient Greece.
In print for over fifty years, D'Aulaires Book of Greek Myths has introduced generations to Greek mythology—and continues to enthrall young readers. Here are the greats of ancient Greece—gods and goddesses, heroes and monsters—as freshly described in words and pictures as if they were alive today. No other volume of Greek mythology has inspired as many young readers as this timeless classic. Both adults and children alike will find this book a treasure for years to come. “For any child fortunate enough to have this generous book . . . the kings and heroes of ancient legend will remain forever matter-of-fact; the pictures interpret the text literally and are full of detail and witty observation.”—The Horn Book
The Iliad is typically described as one of the greatest war stories of all time. Set during the Trojan War, this timeless poem vividly conveys the horror and heroism of men and gods wrestling with towering emotions and battling amid devastation and destruction. Homer's tale is a compassionate view of human life lived under the shadow of suffering and death in the face of an often uncaring divinity.
Jeanne Bendick, through text and pictures, admirably succeeds in bringing to life the ancient Greek mathematician who enriched mathematics and all branches of science. Against the backdrop of Archimedes' life and culture, the author discusses the man's work, his discoveries and the knowledge later based upon it. The simple, often humorous, illustrations and diagrams greatly enhance the text.
Illustrated by Erwin Schachner. The story of the Battle of Marathon and how it determined the future of Athens.
What was it like to live in Ancient Athens? All the people who lived in ancient Greece spoke the same language and worshipped the same gods and goddesses. But they all lived in different city states a city and the land around it that it controlled. These city states were all run differently, and there were often fights between them. Despite their differences, there were things that united the city states. Find out more in this exciting title.
Describes daily life in ancient Greece, discussing life in the city, life in the country, school, ceremonies and festivals, food, and other aspects
Ancient Greece Go Fish Game
You know how I feel about hands-on history. If there is a way to learn history that way, I’ll teach it that way.
The cards have more facts about Ancient Greece that I want Tiny to know.
Games are so much more engaging than a worksheet (uggg).
Don’t get me wrong, I believe worksheets have a place, but a game makes facts fun and easy to remember.
Too, though Mr. Awesome 2015 never minds playing with Tiny, he won’t always be around.
Hands on History
So in adapting this and upcoming games for an only child, this game can be played like memory match up, simple memorization or I can even play with Tiny.
Besides, these game cards can be added to our lapbook.
Also if you love hands-on learning don’t forget that Home School In the Woods have some beautiful units.
I’ll probably end up making a pocket for the cards. Do you want one to store them in? I am thinking yes.
Don’t forget too that this is my third time around studying Ancient Greece, so grab my first lapbook here and Ancient Civilization here .(Minoan and Mycenaean civilization)
Hope you luv this hands-on fun and printable game.
