Whether you are beginning to study Latin for the first time or have studied some Latin in the grammar school, we have created this textbook for you. As the fourth Latin text published by Classical Academic Press, this text will review all the grammar you learned in the Latin for Children Primer Series. Now that you are older and can read and think better, the text will teach you much more about how to use what you have learned. For beginners, this text will leave no stone unturned. We will teach you all the basics of the language. For all students this text is the first in a series that will prepare you to read, understand, even construe Latin texts, which represent some of the greatest literature ever written. What you will find inside: • Pronunciation – The first chapter begins with a thorough lesson on classical pronunciation. This includes important rules on syllabication and accent. • Glossaries – Each chapter begins with a vocabulary and English derivatives. There is also a complete alphabetical glossary in the back for all of these vocabulary words. • Grammar Lessons – The sections in each chapter provide clear, concise, and complete grammatical instruction written just as we teach in our classrooms. Grammatical exercises follow each lesson to help you practice what you have just learned. • Sentence Translation – These exercises appear toward the end of each chapter. They will help you apply what you have practiced in the grammatical exercises and prepare you for the chapter reading to follow. • Chapter Readings – Latin stories about the Roman monarchy and republic end each chapter. We based many of these on the stories of Livy. • Unit Review Chapters – Each unit concludes with a review chapter designed to review the previous lessons. The Unit Review Chapters resemble the format of the reading comprehension portion of the National Latin Exam and the multiple choice section of the Advanced Placement Exam. We intentionally designed these unit reviews to increase reading comprehension skills. • Reading Helps – Each reading whether in a regular chapter or a Unit Review Chapter contains the following helps: Character lists describe the characters that will appear in each story. o An extra glossary for unfamiliar words in the text. Each word appears in italics in the Latin text. o This will allow you to see which words you can expect help on. We have provided the translation for some phrases appearing in bold type at the end of the o passage. This feature allows us to introduce you to classical idioms and expressions that frequently appear in Latin literature. Reading comprehension questions in both Latin and English follow each reading. o • Historical Context – The Latin readings in this text tell of the history and culture of the Roman people from the Trojan War to the death of Julius Caesar. In addition to these Latin passages, each Unit Review Chapter begins with a historical passage written in English. These provide opportunities for us to communicate more about the people, places, and events that surround the stories you are reading. We VII are honored to have Christopher Schlect, historian and Academic Dean of New St. Andrew’s College, as a contributing writer on several of these pieces. • Bonus Material – In addition to all of the above we have provided a combination of the following segments in each chapter to supplement your lessons. Colloquämur – Improve your command of Latin by increasing your oral proficiency. These o activities appear regularly throughout the text and offer practical and sometimes entertaining ways to apply your Latin skills in and out of the classroom. Derivative Detective – Build your English vocabulary through these activities that demonstrate o how we can trace modern words back to an ancient vocabulary. Culture Corner – Learn more about the Romans, their lives, their history, and their traditions o using these windows into the past. Latin Americana? – No, this is not an oxymoron. Each chapter features one of the national o or state mottoes which regularly appear on official insignia. In addition, we offer several opportunities for the student to see how classical history and civilization have shaped our world. note to teAcherS And PArentS: Like Latin for Children, this text includes clear, concise, and complete grammatical instruction, making it user-friendly for the novice Latin teacher. As seen in the list of features above it also incorporates a great number of exercises and additional activities, making a supplemental text quite unnecessary. We have, however, created a teacher’s guide for this text in order to aid you in the classroom. This guide includes not only answers and translations, but also teacher tips, tests, and additional classroom projects accumulated from our combined 50+ years of teaching experience. It is our hope that you will enjoy learning Latin with this textbook as much as we have enjoyed creating it for you. S.D.G. Karen Moore and Gaylan DuBose VIII
