Parental Guidance
This is a course of the Latin language, spoken by the Romans. References to Roman Culture will come up as they learn the language. Also, students will be encouraged to write their own sentences once they've learned enough to do so. One never knows what kids will come up with.
Supply List
Vocabulary lists will be provided along with each lesson. All grammar that students will need to learn will be covered during the lessons. It is up to each student to take their own notes, compiling their own Latin Grammar Book as we progress in the course.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree from Oxford University
Bachelor's Degree from University of California Los Angeles
I have a Bachelors Degree in the Latin Language and have taught Latin at college, high school, and middle school levels. I am an Archaeologist with a Masters Degree in Classical Archaeology as well as another Bachelors in Classical Civilization. I love ancient languages and cultures. If the students are anything like me, they will find themselves working ancient tidbits into every facet of their lives. An avid role play gamer, I even once created a Roman Mythology based world and had my AP students play D&D in Latin!
