Latin - Beginning II

All Genders Course;
Prerequisite - Completion of 8th grade;
Full Year Course

This is one of two entry-level courses for the study of Latin at One Schoolhouse. Please review course selection guidance before registering. ​Latin – Beginning II is intended for students who have not previously studied Latin but who are prepared for a high school level online language course. The course develops competencies in reading and interpreting as well as oral expression and aural comprehension. Students learn the foundational components and structures of Latin that allow them to develop basic reading strategies, which they use to build critical-thinking skills. At the completion of this course, students have acquired proper pronunciation, essential grammar, and the vocabulary necessary for understanding and reading short passages. Students also acquire a deeper knowledge of English vocabulary and grammar. Students study Roman culture and history so that they can examine the indebtedness of modern society to the Roman world, from legendary heroes to myths, gods, and politics. Students take quizzes and tests, but they also read stories, play games, and work together on short research projects to further understand how their developing knowledge of Roman culture applies to their own lives. Students who complete this course are prepared for Latin - Intermediate I.
