Greek Mythology Review Games - Set of 3
This packet contains three different games that can be used to review general Greek mythology stories. While there are many retellings of the Greek myths, with slight variation of details among them, this packet relies on the stories told in D’Aulaires Book of Greek Myths.
Geared for students in grades 6 – 8, this packet offers a fun way to review previous lessons and to prepare for the National Mythology Exam given in the last week of February, hosted by Excellence Through Classics.

Physical Geography Logic Puzzles
This set of five table logic puzzles is geared for 5th to 7th grade students who have studied some geography.

The puzzles require critical thinking skills to solve, but they also require a minimum of background knowledge.

I am always honored to receive fantastic feedback from the TpT community on the products they've purchased through my store.
