Latin 2 2024

Description

Latin 2 (Middle and High School)

By the end of this course students will demonstrate Latin reading comprehension of increasing complexity. Students will move beyond the storyline and examine subtleties of character, motivation and atmosphere. Students will strengthen their foundation in Latin grammar while systematically solidifying their understanding of English grammar. Students will conclude their study how the Romans lived in Roman Britain and be able to describe life in Rome in the first century A.D.
