2023 Workshop Talk | 59:58 | Latin, Greek & Language
Summary
The best litmus test for success in a Latin program is a student’s ability to read and comprehend Latin texts. If one of our goals is for students to be able to read Latin texts such as The Aeneid in Latin, we need to be teaching our students how to read with simpler texts. Picta Dicta’s Reader Series is an optimal way to take your students from zero to Virgil in five years. This workshop will take you through the mechanics of teaching Latin through readers with a strong regard for grammar and vocabulary mastery.
