Class Experience

Previous knowledge required: A working knowledge of English parts of speech and how it relates to Latin cases; 1st/2nd/3rd noun/adjective declensions and cases; 1st/2nd /3rd and Esse/Posse verb conjugations in the past, future, and imperfect tenses; rudimentary vocabulary including common conjunctions and prepositions. If this is your first class with me, I will send you a vocabulary list prior to class starting so you can refer to it as we work. 

In this class, we will learn about demonstrative pronouns (hic, ille, and iste - this/these and that/those), as well as nine special adjectives (U.N.U.S. N.A.U.T.A.). We will also learn more vocabulary, and practice translations. At the end of the class, we will take a virtual field trip to the Roman Colosseum, seeing the ruins that are there today, and a digital reconstruction of the Colosseum!

This is a very interactive class. We do repetition, drills, and sight reading. We discuss Roman culture, linguistics, and how Latin still affects many modern languages. Education is a conversation, and your voice is valued. Please feel free to share ideas, comments, and ask questions!

No 3rd party accounts are necessary. We do use the free online resource (Latin Wiktionary) as our dictionary and case-checker!

Learning Goals

Students are introduced to demonstrative pronouns, special adjectives, new vocabulary, and a bit of Roman culture.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
We will be viewing the Roman Colosseum. This is a place where violent spectacles took place: gladiator fights, wild beast hunts, criminal executions, and the like. While none of the videos show these events, they will be mentioned from a historical bias and lens. The YouTube videos are very age appropriate for this class, and are edited from an architectural and archaeological standpoint.
Supply List
Students need a dedicated Latin notebook for making and studying their vocabulary and noun, adjective, and verb charts. This tool is key to learning and remembering word endings and the meanings of the root words. 

After class, I will send via Outschool message a copy of the slide show as well as a vocabulary list and translation practice. I can send it in either Office format (docx or pptx), Apple format (keynote/pages), or as Google links (docs/slides). Let me know your preference.
External Resources
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Sources
I draw from Wheelock 7th edition text, Cambridge Book 1, Minimus Book 1, Latin for Beginners, and my own studies. We use Latin Wiktionary as a free online source (dictionary).
