2015 Workshop Talk | 0:59:15 | 7-12, K-6, Latin, Greek & Language
Summary
The ancients do us the great courtesy of providing many wonderful examples of orations with both invention and arrangement already selected and crafted. With these first two canons of rhetoric already in place, the use of such orations allows students to focus on the remaining canons of rhetoric: style, memory, and delivery. This presentation will demonstrate the exercise of such practice and the far-reaching benefits afforded to students. Attendees will hear not only from teacher, Karen Moore, but also her students. The students will perform short Latin orations in poetry and prose, and then discuss the methods of their art as well as the benefits they have received from such study. A lesson plan and grading rubric for such a project will be provided to attendees.
