ὁ πατὴρ καὶ ὁ υἱός αὐτοῦ

The story that follows was composed by one of CKI's students at the end of Greek 1. He also created questions, however, those are not included here. The story is fun, accessible and a wonderful example of how CKI helps its students progress in Greek, even after just twelve hours of class time! Enjoy!

ὁ πατὴρ καὶ ὁ υἱός αὐτοῦ περιπατοῦσιν ἐπὶ τὴν ὁδόν. 
ὁ πατὴρ καὶ ὁ υἱός βλέπουσι δένδρον τοῦ καρποῦ. 
ὁ πατὴρ λέγει τῶ υἱῷ αὐτοῦ· ἀνάβηθι ἐπὶ τὸν δένδρον καὶ δός μοι πολὺν καρπόν. 
οὖν ὁ ἀγαθὸς ὁ υἱός ἀνέβησεν ἐπὶ τὸν δένδρον ἀλλὰ κατέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν. 
ὁ πατὴρ ἔκραξεν· υἱέ μου, πῶς ἔχεις; 
ὁ υἱός εἶπεν· ἔχω εὖ, ὦ πάτερ. 
τότε πάλιν ὁ πατὴρ καὶ ὁ υἱός αὐτοῦ περιπατοῦσιν ἐπὶ τὴν ὁδόν.
