Grants for Latin Summer Camps
The Teaching Literacy with Latin summer grant supports high school students who want to organize a short summer Latin camp in their community or online using the Aequora curriculum.
TLwL summer sites are centered around fun and engaging lessons introducing children to the language and culture of the ancient Roman world. Like our school-year program, TLwL summer sites are best suited for elementary and middle school students. Classics summer camps may be created at local libraries and community centers, run in school summer programs, or even hosted online with our Aequora digital resources.
Grantees will be responsible for setting up and organizing their TLwL summer camp, and the grant will help them defray the costs of publicity, instructional materials, and refreshments. An example of a budget has been provided below:
