It doesn't take long to change the world! Alexander the Great's reign may have been short-lived, but his vision for a multi-cultural Hellenistic world shaped Afroeurasia for centuries. Pupils examine documents, such as excerpts from Greek historians and photographs of archeological finds to examine the legacy. A sample activity demonstrates how to use the resources in the classroom.
