Huh? A simple web search shows many, many, many results.

I tried searching and even had Claude search in modern Greek and didn't find specifically cards with objects shaped like the letters.

Can you share what you found?

I read this whole article like you were going to teach them Ancient Greek, but now I'm guessing modern is more likely?

Anyway, some of my strongest language class memories from college are from translating parts of the Odyssey and New Testament.

Very handy. My math education would have gone much better if my notes weren't full of "lambda is the half stickman; sigma is upside down Q or broken E" and other really silly things

Yeah, they should mark the Greek alphabet as a mandatory prerequisite for college math. It had an unreasonable effect on how quickly I was processing notation-heavy math after learning some Greek for going on a trip over there.
