Ancient Greece

Designed for classroom use by grades 6–12, Ancient Greece is the second in a series for young people studying the ancient world. Using the Gallery’s collection of artifacts, this thematic object-centered exploration uses works of art, timelines, video clips, photographs, and interactive media to take students into the world of earlier civilizations. It meets Common Core Standards as students learn to read objects as primary source texts.



Ancient Greece features Alexander Smith, a Mediterranean archaeologist and graduate student at Brown University’s Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World. Smith is a Rochester native who returns monthly to visit area schools.
