Bring a splash of Greek Culture to your English classroom! This unique craft activity combines the traditional Greek "Gaitanaki" (Maypole dance) with Grammar, Syntax, and Critical Thinking.    

    It is a differentiated resource, meaning it includes 2 versions to cover different proficiency levels (from Primary to High School).
