OK, esteemed colleagues, here is a worksheet on the Greek word roots pod and pode. They mean foot and feet. These are a couple of very productive roots in English, and sometimes morph into pede–e.g. centipede. Any student with an interest in the healthcare professions would probably benefit from a look at this document.

This lesson plan on the Greco-Roman social is the eleventh–see below–or an eleven-lesson unit on the origins of religion and philosophy. I grabbed this from a social studies teacher with whom I worked for several years in Lower Manhattan. The raw documents, which I typed and formatted Microsoft Word, looked like they came from someplace on the Internet similar to Mark’s Text Terminal.
In any case, I attached this Cultural Literacy worksheet on Aesop’s fables as wells as this one on the idiom “When in Rome, Do as the Romans Do” as openers for this lesson, which can easily go for two or even three days. In order to get this activity started, you’re students will need this list of participants in the social and the student worksheet and organizer that will serve as their dance card, so to speak, in this activity. I’ll include this teacher’s copy of the list of participants in the Greco-Roman social as well. I regret that the page numbers given for the readings are for a long-forgotten textbook that my co-teacher and I used for this enterprise. It shouldn’t be hard to replace my page numbers with those from whatever textbook your district uses for globals studies and geography.
As I worked my way through posting this unit, I realized I wanted these lessons to span two days so I could get a look at kids’ short-term memories, whether something they’d read the day before remained with them, and if they could apply that knowledge the next day. This guided my planning and suggested to me what I might do in the way of support for the students I served. Let me reiterate once more than these lessons are the basis for a series of lessons that I recut every year to fit the fashions of the New York State Global Studies and Geography Regents Examination.
In the final analysis, I see a lot of room for improvement in these lessons. You probably will too. Remember that just about everything you download from Mark’s Text Terminal is in Microsoft Word, so you may alter this material to your students’ and your own needs.

This lesson plan on theocracy and the divine right of kings is the penultimate (i.e. number ten) of eleven in a unit (see above and below) on the origins of religion and philosophy.

This lesson plan on Socrates (as above and below) is the seventh of an eleven-lesson global studies unit on the origins of religion and philosophy. This is a lesson, owing to Socrates’ importance to methods of inquiry (as well as informing my own teaching practice, which is something I wanted students to understand and take away from this lesson), was definitely designed to unfold over at least two days if possible.
I open this lesson with this Cultural Literacy worksheet on the concept of a faction; for the second day of the lesson, here is a context clues worksheet on the noun justice. Here are the reading on Socrates and its accompanying vocabulary-building and comprehension worksheet that are the primary work for this lesson. Here, also, is a shorter worksheet that I intended either for a class that struggled with the longer reading, or to use as independent practice (i.e. homework).

Here, as above and below, is the sixth in an eleven-lesson global studies unit on the origins of religion and philosophy, to wit, a lesson plan on myths and mythology.
I open this lesson with this context clues worksheet on the noun protagonist and include here, in the event the lesson spans two days (as previously mentioned, I am all but certain I intended) another on the noun antagonist. This is an unmistakably complementary and complimentary pair of words for a lesson on mythological figures.
Finally, here is the reading and comprehension questions that are the central work of this lesson. You’ll also need this learning support on the Roman gods for the independent practice (i.e. homework) for this lesson.
