Syllabus/Daily AssignmentsGreek 101, Fall 2008 Binghamton University SUNY, Starks

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Assignments listed beside the dates are to BE COMPLETED BY THAT DATE.        
                       
R = Read in Athenaze, V = Vocabulary in Athenaze, Ex = Exercise in Athenaze, ExOL = Exercise Online at Athenaze Greek Exercises

For Intro and Vocab you should read the grammatical information on the pages listed for a given chapter and study the vocabulary words for that new lesson, so that when I introduce these in class, you will already be familiar with the words, the grammatical points to be covered, and the general terminology to be used in that class as I reinforce and reexplain these as presented in the book.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Each lesson in Athenaze has additional exercises online that are self-correcting (Athenaze Greek Exercises). I will assign these, but not generally cover them in class – they are intended as supplementary work to reinforce the principles of that lesson. Vocabulary, grammar and reading drills are all available here.


Some Independent Study Aids:

Greek Morphological tool - enter the full Greek form and you should get a complete grammatical analysis of the word + a dictionary entry – IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to follow the rules on the chart here for properly transliterating Greek letters with English and appropriate markings.
Dictionary headwords - searchable by Greek roots and English meanings - enter pherb to search for pherbos, pheristos, phero etc.
English to Greek word search

Perseus Greek Texts – best currently available collection of Ancient Greek texts arranged by author
