The Parthenon Frieze, British Museum
The activities and lesson plans developed for this Web site comprise a multidisciplinary unit that uses television, the Internet, and other resources as learning tools to explore and understand the ancient Greek world.

The lessons are designed primarily for middle and high school level students, though most could be adapted with minor modification for use with elementary school children.

Based on 'The Greeks: Crucible of Civilization' PBS series, first shown in February 2000 as a special two hour twenty minute broadcast, the lessons detailed here are specifically tailored to the resources provided by this Web site and hotlinks to relevant pages are provided in the 'Extensions, Adaptations, Further Resources' section below
