ケンブリッジ ミニマス ラテン語 - パート 2

Class Experience
The aim of this Latin course is to give young learners a taste of the Latin language by learning about the culture that spoke Latin, the Romans, and learning Latin roots. Learners will read Latin comics out-loud, with vocabulary help, to practice their Latin pronunciation and then translate the short sentences. 

Each chapter focuses on one beginner's Latin grammar point, which will slowly be built upon with each subsequent chapter. Learners will practice memorizing 10 new latin vocabulary words per chapter. Since this course is meant to be a slow and FUN way to learn about the Latin language, one chapter will be covered over a period of two weeks. Some projects and worksheets will be assigned, but learners will be given at least one week notice before the due date. For some activities the worksheet will need to be printed before class. 

This class will use Google Classroom to manage assignments. It will also use “Nearpod” for live classes which encourages student engagement and interaction. This will require students to “join” each live class through a Nearpod code so that they can interact with the slides by answering questions, filling in blanks, and drawing. Part of the first class includes learning how to join Nearpod and practicing using Nearpod. Below is an outline of each week’s class and the topics that will be covered.
