Most of the materials linked to below were originally written to support the teaching of Latin, Greek, and Classical Studies to children aged 9-13 (Years 5-8) who were preparing for the Common Entrance examination for entry to British public schools. The selection of Bible stories was compiled to support a colleague teaching Year 7 classes.
Other items of possibly wider interest have been added.

Each presentation opens in its own tab/window and is in a slide-show format (based on PowerPoint),
such that its pages are all within one web page.
Navigation within each presentation is via 'forward' and 'back' buttons at the bottom right (in most browsers).
At the bottom left there is also a button to provide thumbnail views of all the pages in the presentation;
clicking on a thumbnail will take you directly to the associated page.
Additionally, each presentation has its own internal links and index for navigation.

I am now retired but hope that my presentations may still be of use, not only to school pupils but also to adults with an interest in the classical world.

There is no charge for anything on this website but, if you feel the materials have been of value to you and would like to contribute in however small a way towards my running costs, that would be very welcome. To contribute via PayPal, please use paypal.me/psmmp1 (selecting For friends and family as the type of payment). Thank you for whatever amount you may choose to send.
