-Parents and Teachers-
Good News!!
You CAN teach Latin even if you have never studied it before!
Schola
Publications introduces
The LATIN
Road to English Grammar, a comprehensive language curriculum designed
for anyone who desires to gain a better knowledge of
English through the study of Latin. This curriculum is so complete that
you can learn and teach Latin at the same time - you learn
along with your students. All the materials you need are included for
easy learning and teaching:
textbook, worksheets, tests,
vocabulary cards, answer keys, lesson plans, verb charts, audio CD’s for
pronunciation and
teacher training DVDs.
During the course of study each student develops his own Latin-English
handbook. All information concerning grammar
and vocabulary is presented in a balanced combination of oral and
written work. Students will hear, say, see, read, and write Latin
and English constantly. In this way all students can learn with their
strengths and yet also practice their weaknesses. This multisensory
method of learning does far more to instill the information in the
student’s mind than a mere workbook method. Everything is
clearly defined, and, equipped with the essential components, any
student is able to analyze both English and Latin.
-Students-
Did you know
that you need a vocabulary at least 10 times larger
for thinking than you do for talking?
The best service you can perform for yourself is to learn how to study
and how to absorb the greatest amount of learning in
the shortest amount of time. The study of Latin can help you do this. It
trains your memory, gives you increased word power,
develops your reasoning powers, strengthens your reading skills, and
helps you form a finely structured English vocabulary.
Just as phonics help you understand what words are, Latin helps you
understand what words mean. And you don’t have to
wait until high school to study Latin. The LATIN Road to English Grammar
has been designed to begin as early as 5th/6th
grade, allowing you to be finished with your high school foreign
language requirement before entering high school. The entire
study is done in three years, each volume covering one year.
For those students in 3rd/4th grade, you can now prepare for The LATIN
Road to English Grammar with our one-year
introduction called The BRIDGE to the Latin Road. The BRIDGE to the
Latin Road gives the teacher and student not only a
good working introduction to Latin in the form of common Latin roots,
prefixes, and suffixes, but a solid introduction to all the
sentence structures that will later be encountered in Latin translations
in The LATIN Road to English Grammar, all taught on
DVD.
