The Idea of Marathon

Battle and Culture

By: Sonya Nevin

The Battle of Marathon changed the course of history in ancient Greece. To many, the impossible seemed to have been achieved - the mighty Persian Empire halted in its advance. What happened that day, why was the battle fought, and how did people make sense of it? This bold new history of the battle examines how the conflict unfolded and the ideas attached to it in antiquity and beyond. Many thought the battle offered lessons in how people should behave, with heroism to be emulated and faults to be avoided. While the battle itself was fought in one day, the battle for the idea of Marathon has lasted ever since. After immersing you in the battle, this work will help you to explore how the ancient Athenians used the battle in their relations between themselves and others, and how the battle continued to be used to express ideas about gods, empire, and morality in the age of Alexander and his successors, at Rome and in Greece under the Roman Empire, and in the ages after antiquity, even in our own era, in which Marathon plays a remarkable role in sport, film, and children's literature with each retelling a re-imagining of the battle and its meaning. A clash of weapons, gods, and principles, this is Marathon as you've never seen it before!

Essential English Skills for the Australian Curriculum Year 7

A multi-level approach

By: Anne-Marie Brownhill,Alison Rucco,Sonya Stoneman

ESSENTIAL ENGLISH SKILLS YEAR 7 FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CURRICULUM has been revised to cover the language and literacy strands of the Australian Curriculum: English with a focus on introducing key language and literacy skills in Years 7&8 and consolidating and developing those skills in Years 9&10. Units in each workbook are organised by skill and cover grammar, punctuation, spelling, vocabulary, reading, comprehension, writing and editing. Explicit teaching pages for each unit carefully explain the required skills, allowing students to work independently in class or at home. Three levels of graded exercises extend on from the proceeding level, giving every student an achievable starting point and the opportunity to extend their skills. A phonics approach to spelling helps students develop a secure grasp of the essential sound and spelling patterns. A cognitive model for comprehension allows students to learn about certain language and text features as they are reading. Strong focus on vocabulary development and grammar basics ensure students can apply basic concepts to their own writing across disciplines as well as in the English classroom. Proofreading and editing tools encourage students to review their own work and equip them with the skills they need to develop their writing and language use.Writing challenges invite students to apply the concepts they have learnt in short written exercises. Interacting challenges provide opportunities for oral work and interactions with other students. New digital based exercises (Wiki Tasks, Website Explorer and Technology challenge ICT exercises) are fully integrated within the text to extend learning and encourage students to apply knowledge. The Australian Curriculum strands are explicitly identified allowing easy indication of the material that fits into the strands. Solutions are available on Cambridge GO for teachers. No code is required to access these resources, but access is only available through a Cambridge GO Teacher Account.
