Revolving Two Week Schedule:

After the first chapter, most others will take about two weeks to complete.  Plan to spend about 4 hours per week. Detailed instructions for each chapter are in the Teacher’s Guide, but this general overview might help you begin.

 Begin each day with a greeting, “Salve!”  Pray for the class, and recite either the Latin Pledge of Allegiance or the Lord’s Prayer.  After you finish for the day, say “Good-bye” in Latin, “Vale!”

 ¨         Day One: Return tests from previous chapter.  Go over them.  Read Grammar section of new chapter.  Pronounce and write phrases in notebook. Listen to vocabulary words on tape.

¨         Day Two: Review phrases with students. Drill Flash Cards, and new endings twice.  Do half the Drill Sheet phrases.    Assign a report or literature appropriate to the chapter.

¨         Day Three: Flash Card and endings drill two times.   Conjugate or decline all vocabulary words orally.  Second half of Drill Sheet.  Map work if it is in the chapter.

¨         Day Four: Flash Card drill twice.  Do Study Sheet, and one page of Activity Book.

¨         Day Five: Quiz on vocabulary words.  Begin to translate Exercises from textbook.  Do as many as you have time to do.

¨         Day Six: Flash card drill.  Do they still remember the meaning of the phrase?  Question them about phrases from other lessons.  Continue doing exercises from the book.  If you have several students and a whiteboard, assign some students to do sentences on the board.

¨         Day Seven: Do any reports, literature reading, poetry writing, or songs in Latin that you have found.  Drill Flash Cards and endings, and review old ones too.  Finish Exercises, and begin Reading Lesson.

¨         Day Eight: Flash Card drill.  Finish Reading Lesson.

¨         Day Nine: Review ALL old material for test tomorrow.  You might want to use a game like Vinco (located in your Study Sheet packet) to review.

¨         Day Ten: Give test.
