2017 Workshop Talk | 0:58:09 | All Grade Levels, Latin, Greek & Language, Rhetoric & Composition
Summary
In the grammar stage, we stuff our students full of facts which (we hope) they will employ to create masterpieces of creativity in the rhetoric stage . . . but we are often disappointed. In this workshop for Latin teachers, participants will learn how to help students make the transition from grammar (the raw materials of Latin) to rhetoric (creative composition). Practical methods, exercises, and strategies will be shared, along with time for Q & A.
