初學者拉丁文（第 1 部分，共 2 部分） 使用 Minimus

** Summer Latin will run 2x a week for 6 weeks. Fall and Spring will run 1x a week for 12 weeks **

They say Latin (and Greek) is essential to expanding one's vocabulary. They also say that the earlier you learn a new language the easier it is to learn and retain. So why do very few people learn Latin until middle school or later? Help your child get a head start in learning Latin and expanding their understanding of English words while still in elementary school.

This class will introduce elementary students to the Latin language as well as the British society at the time of the Romans. We will also touch on Roman mythology while learning how to do as the Romans did. Students will use Cambridge Press's "Minimus" Latin book during this class. When I was in a physical classroom, I used this text to teach my third and fourth-grade students Latin. This curriculum is fun and engaging and does more than just teach Latin grammar. Students get a great introduction to the language and culture which engages them beyond the classroom. 

Each week students will be introduced to new Latin words and grammar. Students will be given access to online note cards to help with the memorization of new words. In between classes, students will have worksheets to complete as well as quizzes to turn in. Students will submit these items to the teacher between each class. Students will also be given things to memorize to aid them in their study of Latin. Class time will focus on grammar each week along with reading, translation, and cultural lessons. 

This class will cover the first half of the book. The second semester will be offered upon completion of the first semester.
