She has now recorded this wonderful CD entitled Myths of Ancient Greece.
It mixes stories with songs. We learn about Demeter & Persephone, Perseus & Medusa, Orpheus & Eurydice, Echo & Narcissus, and Cupid & Psyche.
It's a great mix of the stories and the music. The songs are catchy. I would say this is good for all ages.
My daughter is a senior this year, and as many of you know, she is homeschooled.
It just happened that we studied Greece through books. The books didn't touch too much on mythology and she expressed an interest in also learning the myths as well. I had bought her a workbook that we have just started in.
I was excited to have a chance to review Myths of Ancient Greece and use it as part of her schooling.
We both really enjoyed it and will listen to it a few more times of learning.
It's a proven fact that music helps you learn better, this CD is great!

I think this would be a fun way to learn more about ancient Greece. My kids love stuff like this (me too!)
ReplyDeleteI don't know much of anything about ancient mythology. This sounds like a good way to learn about something brand new to me!
ReplyDeleteI have always heard learning through music is a great way to learn. I know my children memorize easier that way. Also audio learners usually can learn better that way too! I do not know alot about Greek mythology myself, but am sure at some point we will be studying it too!
ReplyDeleteI have studied Classical Mythology and enjoyed it, but I do have trouble keeping the cast and story lines straight. Maybe setting some of the action to music would help it stick! :)
