Number Three paints a wall...

...with Greek verb conjugations!

One of his Greek II college class projects... he is privileged to have this opportunity while a Sophomore in High School.

Thank you, Dr. O'Hara!

I can't tell by the picture - what is he writing? Is it a different language?

Thanks for the comment, Katie! I updated the post! Not enough time to blog here this morning...

This is the complete conjugation of a simple thematic verb in Greek. Greek has a very large number of verb forms, and it can be difficult for students to remember it all. This exercise provided them a chance to dwell long on the verb, and to offer their classmates a glimpse at what they've been doing.

I should add that this is not the complete verb, just the complete simple thematic forms. It represents about a third of a complete verb chart in Greek.

I suspect that last comment elicited a collective "Huh?". I've studied greek and that's what initially came to mind!
