Name: ADAPTED CLASSICS: The Iliad, The Odyssey, and Greek History (online camp in the liberal arts)
Start: 2025-06-16T00:00:00-04:00
Location: Foundations Classical Academy

The purpose of this live online course is to spark pre-teen/early teenage students' interest in reading classic books and to teach them to engage in Socratic discussion about themes, characters, plot, etc. Parts of the books will be read aloud; others will be left for the students to read on their own. We will also focus on history related to the stories. Our summer 2025 readings are selections from Homer’s The Iliad and The Odyssey.
