This lesson explores the connection between geography and lifestyle in ancient Greece. Students will examine how the rocky terrain and limited water resources influenced agricultural practices, leading to the development of terrace farming. The isolation of communities due to mountainous landscapes and the role of the sea in fostering trade and providing jobs will also be discussed. Through reading and team reviews, students will gain insights into how geographical factors shaped the social and economic lives of the Greek people.
