Mythology Study {TOS Crew Review}

Mythology Study {TOS Crew Review}

I loved to study Greek mythology as a child.  In fact, in high school when I was on the Academic Bowl team I was the one who answered all the mythology questions.  I studied them all!  I couldn’t wait until my children were old enough to do a mythology study with me.  I was super excited to see that a review item up with the TOS Crew from Memoria Press this year was D’Aulaires’ Greek Myths.  A whole new world of adventure was about to open up for my children!

 

Logic, Greek Myths and Astronomy Memoria Press Review
 

Included in the Mythology study set we received was:

  • D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths
  • D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths Student Book
  • D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths Teacher Book
  • D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths Flashcards

It was like Christmas for me when I opened this package in the mail!  My kids were a little less excited as they weren’t sure who this study was intended for and also because we really hadn’t done anything with mythology yet.  This mythology study from Memoria Press was a whole new world opening for them.

If you go to the Memoria Press site they will recommend that this study be used for grades 3-6.  I used it with my daughter who is doing 4th grade work(well at least until we start new books in July).  She loves to read and devours everything she can find literature wise.  I thought it would be a good fit.

 

Mythology Study {TOS Crew Review}

 

The set retails for $57.00 currently.  Within the student book are 30 lessons so it isn’t going to take all school year to complete this set.  Depending on how you break it up it could last 30 weeks or less.  It’s all in how quickly you and your student want to go through it!

Memoria Press offers a Classical Christian education system in all of their products.  So it comes as no surprise that this doesn’t just teach Greek mythology to our children but also points out how Greek mythology corresponds with our life today and also how it was really a search for a divine being of the people at that time and how a lot of their stories do relate to and mimic the Bible.

With this study, I did the out-loud reading of the myths.  All of my children sat and listened to the stories read, or if they were two years old played with toys but still somehow managed to be able to answer some of my comprehension questions.  

We all loved reading the myths and looking at the gorgeous pictures.  The artwork in this book is just wonderful!  Each lesson also covered vocabulary, geography, character studies of the gods themselves, and so much more.  It really is a great way to have a mythology study and make sure that your child is comprehending and getting the most out of their work.  Memoria Press has always done a great job of having a complete study and this is just another example of that excellent work.

We here in our house do tend to love Memoria Press and always look forward to reviewing with them through the Crew plus purchasing products to use in our homeschool.
