Beginning Latin II
Materials Used:

Beginning Latin II Workbook, Teacher Key.

Description:

Developed at Mother of Divine Grace School.  This course moves quickly but thoroughly through the material taught in Beginning Latin 1 and then introduces more complex topics (such as i-stems) around Week 8. This course is still gentle in its approach; the memorization is manageable and constantly reinforced and observation skills are used to recognize grammar forms. . Beginning Latin focuses on learning how to conjugate and decline. Most programs emphasize memorizing verb endings and paradigms, but in Beginning Latin, students spend more time studying the  endings and stems as parts of verbs, before jumping into these endings or paradigms, so that conjugation can be done correctly. Nouns are learned through observing their uses in sentences. Students begin with the third declension, rather than the first or second, because most nouns are in the third declension. Students practice using nouns correctly through sentence translations. Students also learn how to build nouns on their stems, how to identify the stems, and the English name equivalents of the Latin cases. 24 quizzes and 3 tests are submitted for review and grading at the Grading-Only and Assisted level. 54 exercises and quizzes are submitted for review and grading at the Directed and Enhanced Directed level.
