Latin

This is an introductory Latin course that combines language and the culture of Roman Britain. The course centers on a real family who lived at Vindolanda in the first century, AD. With the use of a highly illustrated book containing a mix of comic strips, stories, myths, grammar explanations and background cultural information, the students gain exposure to the ancient culture and lifestyle. The course also features many of the artifacts and writing tablets from the Vindolanda excavations. The grammatical content helps students to develop language awareness, and provides a solid foundation from which learners can progress to further English or foreign language studies.
