Other Details
Parental Guidance
Discussion of Roman culture unavoidably includes topics such as slavery and violence. Additionally, our textbook takes place in Pompeii, and we will be viewing a walking tour of Pompeii that includes skeletal human remains.
Supply List
A PDF textbook will be provided. Purchasing a hard copy of the textbook is recommended for for students who are not tech-savvy (used is perfectly fine, edition doesn't matter very much). The text we use is the Cambridge Latin Course Unit One, Fifth Edition
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
