includedClass Experience
There are so many good reasons to learn Latin. Latin helps students build vocabulary, a real plus when it comes to college entrance exams. Latin also helps students to lay a firm foundation before learning other languages. Students will be able to more easily launch into learning one of the romance languages like Spanish, French, Romanian, Italian, or Portuguese after taking Latin. This course will work through stages 7 - 9 of the Cambridge Unit 1 Latin book. Students will need to have a copy of the book as well as the workbook in order to successfully work through the class. Each week the class will work through approximately one-half of a stage in the book. Students will learn vocabulary and practice translation exercises. Students will use already-acquired knowledge to make educated guesses about Latin words. Students will learn Latin grammar through learning parts of speech. Students will also learn about the Roman culture in Pompeii before Mt Vesuvius erupted. Week One: Stage Nine. Introduction to Latin. Students will learn about the dative case. They will review all known cases. Week Two: Stage Nine continued. Students will continue to review cases. They will continue to learn vocabulary. They will also learn about Roman baths.

Parental Guidance
I will at times give students cultural videos and pronunciation guides to view on YouTube. These are sources I have used in the classroom or have been given to me by other Latin teachers at other schools.
These videos are supplemental and not required to view, but highly suggested.
