SALVĒTE

I am excited to be joining you on this journey. Below is an explanation about what each week and day will look like when you join me daily for Latin.

Each Week is divided into 4 days. When you click on each day, you will see a short explanation about that day's focus followed by 5 sections titled: Watch, Read, Memorize, Study, Do. See below for a description about each section.

Nota Bene: Make sure to CLICK the completed box in the bottom right once you have finished that days videos and exercises.

WATCH: Here you will find a short video to watch. Generally this will be less than 12 minutes, but in the beginning they may run a bit longer to get up to speed with all of the new information.

READ: Pages being referred to from the Henle text that can be read to review the concept for that day.

MEMORIZE: Here you will have a short video introducing the newest vocabulary and we will walk through highlighting it in the ZTL Resource Notebook.

STUDY: Here you will find the grammar rule numbers that are referenced from the Grammar Blue Book that are being focused on that day or week.

DO: I will assign exercises to be completed each day. There will be a short video for each of the exercises, giving an example on how to do each one.

GETTING STARTED

Below is all the information you will need to prepare for your first week of lessons. The videos will help you get your resources and texts prepared for the first day of class.
