Aequora at John Hancock

Posted on Teaching Literacy with Latin by Aminata Hughes · December 30, 2024 1:31 PM · 2 reactions

About Our Site and Aequora

Our Aequora site is located at The John Hancock School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is a school that provides many after-school programs and opportunities to its students, now including Latin.

Aequora is a K-8 program focused on literacy via Latin. At John Hancock, we have chosen Aequora because we believe in the benefits of a classical education. Through The Paideia
Institute's Aequora curriculum, our volunteers harness the classical languages' power to improve literacy, cultural understanding, and equity in education all while making the ancient Mediterranean world fun and accessible to students of all backgrounds.

Led by independent site coordinators, Aequora envisions Classics as an inclusive, diverse, and socially engaged field. Our textbook, Aequora: Teaching Literacy with Latin, introduces the basics of Latin vocabulary and grammar, Roman culture and mythology, and connections between Latin, English, and Spanish, all through games and activities designed to show students that learning Latin is fun!

How We Teach Aequora 

At this site, Aequora is run by one student volunteer. Lessons are held once a week for 45 minutes. The program is also held hybridly, as we typically learn online through google meet and will meet in-person in the future. The Aequora program is sustained by enthusiastic volunteers all over the country who care about making a difference and want to fight educational inequality through sharing their love of Latin.

Below you will find information to help you prepare for your Living Latin and Greek conference experience. You can also see who else is coming to the conference and communicate with other enrolled attendees via a Whatsapp Group, which you can join by clicking on this link.  You can always return to this page if you have any questions.  It will also appear in your My Programs section of your Paideia Institute Account, where there are also other resources for the Paideia community. Please check it out.

Practical Information

The conference will take place at Fordham University's Lincoln Center campus in Manhattan and will run from 8:30am - 5:30pm on Saturday, February 15th and 8:30am - 5:45pm on Sunday, February 16th.

Nota bene: there are two different entrances for Saturday and Sunday:

On Sunday, you'll enter Fordham at 113 W 60th St., through the Lowenstein Center entrance, marked in yellow on this map. 

Also linked on the map are restaurant / food recommendations near Fordham. 

CONFERENCE PACKET

There is no need to prepare or print texts ahead of time, but if you would like to review the texts, as well as preview the schedule, you can view the conference booklet here and the schedule here. 

The Latin readings below correspond to the sessions on the schedule: 

Session I: Cicero's De re publica - pg. 7-8

Session II: Donation of Constantine - pg 39-43

Session III: Leonardus Aretinus's Laudatio Florentinae Urbis  - pg 50

Session V: Vergil's Aeneid 6 - pg. 19-21

Session VI: Hildebertus - pg. 46-47

Session VII: Laurentius Valla - pg. 51-52

The Greek texts below will be read during the Greek sessions: 

Session I: John 1,1-18

Session II: Genesis 2-3

Session III: Plato, Symposium

Session VI: Plutarch, Theseus

LECTURES

The conference features lectures in English, Latin and Ancient Greek on the conference's theme, Origin Stories, by speakers from all over the world. Lectures are open to all conference attendees. You can view the descriptions of the conference talks starting on page 107 in the booklet. 

BREAKOUT SESSIONS

In addition to the lectures, the conference also features breakout sessions taught by conference speakers and Paideia staff. In small groups formed according to participants’ experience with Latin or Greek, participants will read and discuss set selections from the conference packet under the guidance of an experienced instructor. These sessions are meant to be interactive immersion experiences in Greek or Latin, which are the exclusive languages of instruction. Group information will be posted on this page by February 1st. 

SPECIAL BREAKOUT SESSIONS

In addition to the regular breakout sessions, one special session (titled 'Varia' in the packet) will be offered daily. During the special session, participants are allowed to choose from a selection of offerings. Special sessions include reading of Latin and Ancient Greek texts from the conference packet but not covered in the regular sessions, free Latin or Greek conversation, games, and other activities.

A NOTE ON SPEAKING LATIN AND GREEK

In all breakout sessions and in the Latin lectures, the language of instruction will be Latin, and participants are expected to speak only Latin.

The Paideia Institute does not, however, enforce a Latin-only policy at any of its programs. We see this conference as an opportunity for teachers and others interested in Latin and Greek to come together, practice speaking Latin and Ancient Greek (or try it for the first time) in a supportive environment, effectively learn methods to incorporate active Latin into their own classrooms, meet, interact, and network with one another, and have a good time.

To this end, we certainly encourage those who wish to speak Latin during lunch, during coffee hour, or even for the duration of the conference, but speaking in English is also completely fine.

Spoken Ancient Greek

Participants who already know Ancient Greek will be scheduled for at least one Ancient Greek breakout session over the course of the weekend. There will also be spoken Ancient Greek options offered in each of the special sessions. Participants who know no Greek will be scheduled for only Latin sessions.

Cancellation Policy 

The last day to cancel one's registration for a full refund is February 7th, 2025. No refunds can be provided after this date. If you need to cancel at the last minute, we will offer you credit for next year’s conference or for another Paideia program.
