In this 10-week course learners will continue to be gently introduced to the Latin language and the culture of the ancient Romans.

Class Experience

The aim of this Latin course is to give young learners a taste of the Latin language by learning about the culture that spoke Latin, the Romans, and learning Latin roots. Learners will read Latin comics out-loud, with vocabulary help, to practice their Latin pronunciation and then translate the short sentences. 

Each chapter focuses on one beginner's Latin grammar point, which will slowly be built upon with each subsequent chapter. Learners will practice memorizing 10-15 new Latin vocabulary...

Please see the detailed outline in "class experience" that lists what will be covered each week.

I love Latin and the Greco-Roman world.  I also have many years of experience teaching Latin to a range of ages and skills levels online and in a traditional classroom.  I believe that learning should be a fun and engaging journey!

There will be homework assigned. This will consist of completing worksheets and memorizing a small number of Latin vocabulary words each week.

The text for this class is "Minimus: Starting Out in Latin" by Barbara Bell, published by Cambridge University Press. Each learner will need a copy of the book. The book can be purchased on Amazon for about $34. The text is sometimes referred to as the "Minimus Pupil's Book".

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:Nearpod
Quizlet

50 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
