Description:

This year, we’ll continue the Latin journey we started in Beginning Latin. We’ll build a solid foundation of both English and Latin grammar, vocabulary, derivatives, and translation. By the end of the year, students will have learned over 250 Latin words plus all of their endings. (That’s 3,500 forms of words!)

Students will be introduced to the great ancient works of Homer as we read age-appropriate versions of Homer’s The Iliad and The Odyssey. Cultural appreciation for the Romans will be developed through fascinating stories and projects like Roman sword fighting and shield making. Both a Roman gladius and student-designed shield will be given as part of the class materials. As well, the arts will continue to be integrated into the classroom to augment the growth of neural pathways in the brain so that learning is more cohesive and permanent!

If your student would like to enroll in Intermediate Latin but has not completed Beginning Latin, a self-paced Beginning Latin course may be completed before class begins. Please contact the instructor.
