Course Description: This is a continuation of a summer course, and may not be appropriate for every student: see below. We'll have lots of reading practice and progress in our knowledge of Latin grammar using Paideia's Living Latin Text, with new material from Unit 18 onward. There will also be plenty of review and solidification of prior concepts. We will use so-called "tiered readings" to read simplified versions of authentic Latin text. In addition, we will focus on composing and translating short passages into Latin, which will also help solidify our understanding of the language.
DETAILS
Level: Students should already be familiar with the following forms and concepts: active and passive verbs in the present, imperfect and perfect tenses (indicative), nouns and adjectives of all five declensions, comparative and superlative adjectives, basic uses of noun cases, personal, reflexive, relative and demonstrative pronouns, complementary infinitives, and a variety of vocabulary. Please email [email protected] if you are interested in this course. This is an ongoing class with students from the summer semester, but newcomers may also join if they are at a similar level. For most students, the Living Latin courses starting from Unit 1 or 13 will be more appropriate.
