FREE SOCIAL STUDIES LESSON – “Ancient Greece: Minoan Frescoes”
by Skool Aid Products
5th – 8th Grade
Minoan Frescoes is an excerpt from my presentation of Ancient Greece: The Minoan and Mycenae Civilizations
The Minoan language has yet to be deciphered and the main source of information on them is from their frescoes and artifacts. These frescoes give students an unparalleled opportunity to experience being archaeologists. So I put together a series of Minoan frescoes paired with guiding questions to lead the students on a journey of historic discovery. How do their observations stand up to those of archaeologists and historians? Try the sample in your classroom, the complete Minoan presentation is 173 slides and handouts and explores in depth the entire archaeological discovery by Sir Arthur Evans and new information unearthed since then. Your students will love it, and be highly engaged in this style of learning.

I always approach the end of the school year with mixed emotions, though I’m ecstatic to be out for summer vacation, I always feel a little sad saying good-bye. Many of my soon to be 7th graders hug me and leave with tears in their eyes, knowing that our little family will no longer be together. All the trials and tribulations, the challenges, the fun times and sad times will be always be with us, but it will never be the same.
