Latin 1 (Class 15): Translations, Vocab, & Charts You Need to Know
Class experience
Previous knowledge required: A working knowledge of English parts of speech and how it relates to Latin cases; 1st/2nd/3rd (including i-stems) nouns and 1st/2nd adjectives (declensions and how to use the cases); 1st/2nd /3rd/4th and Esse/Posse verb conjugations in the past, future, and imperfect tenses (active indicative); rudimentary vocabulary including common conjunctions and prepositions; demonstrative pronouns (hic/ille/iste and idem), personal pronouns (ego/nos, etc), reflexive &...
Students will review their gained knowledge of Latin and realized just how much they have learned. It will be a tremendous confidence-builder when they see exactly how much they do know.
I have a bachelors and masters degree in foreign language and history. I have taught and/or tutored this class at various levels and for various ages (middle school to university). I have traveled to and researched in the places I teach about, and I often include realia and cultural information to make the language come alive for the student.
Homework Offered
If you happen to be a first-time student to my Latin classes, I will provide you with all of the previous materials you need to jump in and be current for this class. For previous students, your homework today will be to study the provided handout and complete a comprehensive take-home quiz to be turned in via Outschool messages. Homework is for YOUR benefit. Study the vocabulary. Make your noun/adjective/verb charts. Practice translations. I provide all the materials you need to work in your dedicated Latin notebook. For every hour of Latin class, you should be studying for - at the very least - two hours (I suggest a little more, but I proudly confess that I am a big old Latin nerd).2 - 4 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
The assessment for this class is different. I will send a comprehensive study guide and take-home quiz to be completed and returned to me via Outschool messages. Your parents will be copied on the final result.Grades Offered
Bring your study guide that I provided you at the end of Lesson 14. Bring your notebook and any handouts you've accrued. If this is your first class with me, I will provide a comprehensive vocabulary list as well as the handouts of translations and sight readings when you enroll so that you print it out and have it prepared for this class.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
I draw from Wheelock 7th edition text, A Latin Grammar, 38 Latin Stories Designed to Accompany Wheelock, Cambridge Book 1, Minimus Book 1, Latin for Beginners, and my own studies. We use Latin Wiktionary as a free online source (dictionary).
I teach world history/cultures and the languages associated with them. My teaching experience (2005 - present) is varied, as are the ages I have taught. I've taught pre-school children phonics and grammar. I've taught middle-schoolers history,...
