Latin 1 (Class 8): Third Declension Nouns and Sight Reading (Foreign Language)
Class Experience
Previous knowledge required: A working knowledge of English grammar; 1st/2nd noun/adjective declensions and cases; 1st/2nd and Esse/Posse verb conjugations in the past, future, and imperfect tenses; rudimentary vocabulary including common conjunctions. 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 the 3rd declension nouns and practice using them, along with new vocabulary....
- Students will be introduced to the 3rd declension nouns, new vocabulary, and practice grammatical and intuitive translations.
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.

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.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
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).
