Class Announcements
Are you confused about "Crustula"?
The crustula model for practice and participation is designed to differentiate the learning needs of students. Encourage your student to choose the types of activities they practice wisely. If your student is struggling with cumulative vocabulary, then it would be best to visit the www.cambridgescp.com website to test vocabulary knowledge. I will make recommendations for different types of practice to students on a weekly basis.
Class Updates
Latin I - Latin I students are currently in Stage 4. Our goal is to complete 10-11 stages by Christmas break, which is a very fast pace! Encourage your student to keep studying past vocabulary lists so that the speed of the curriculum does not impact their success. Culturally, we are studying Roman daily life in the ancient forum.
Latin II - We are finishing up Stage 20 this week and will have our Stage 20 Test next Tuesday (September 23rd). We will then be moving into a new text book and studying participles and Aqua Sulis/Bath, England.
Latin III Honors - Students will be taking the Stage 33 Test today. Latin III Honors requires complex knowledge of vocabulary and grammar. Please encourage your student to consistently study cumulative vocabulary! Culturally, we are studying ancient forms of entertainment, philosophy, and religion. Latin III does have a project due on October 30th. Be sure to check it out on google classroom!
