Hi, thanks for the great podcast. My name is Gem and I am starting teaching Class.Civ next year (currently teaching RS but fancied a new challenge). I am really on the scrounge and hoping to play on principles of xenia and see if you might help me out with schemes of work. You guys really seem to know your stuff. I have mapped the content into my timetabled lessons but I am kind of guessing how much to give each section. So if you are up for sharing a program of study/medium term plan that would really help. Obviously it's the hols so you might not want to think about till September- no worries. I really like your Mycenaean episodes- very useful. Best wishes Gem
