The complete package also includes a booklet of quizzes and tests, pronunciation CD, flashcards, wall/desk charts (which are handy for recitation). Those are the basics that you’ll definitely want to have for teaching Latin (you could skip the DVD if you feel comfortable teaching the lessons yourself).
#MEMORIA PRESS CHARTER MANUAL#
Teacher’s Manual (includes the Student Text as well as extra teacher helps).Student Workbook (exercises and worksheets correlated to the lesson material).There is really no point in trying to move quickly through a subject like Latin. A solid foundation is the most important part of learning Latin. Students on the younger end will probably want to move more slowly through the program, taking the time to really understand the material before moving on. The program is recommended for students in grades 4-9. As the author states, “ All beginners-regardless of age-are in the grammar stage of learning.” Instead of jumping right into translation, students are taught basic vocabulary and plenty of grammar, preparing them for future translation work.
#MEMORIA PRESS CHARTER SERIES#
The first book in the ‘First Form’ series – First Form Latin – is the first of four books that deeply cover Latin grammar. If you’re starting in middle school, begin with the ‘First Form’ series. If you’re starting with older kids, there is no need to start with the first program as their programs work with a variety of ages. They also have a variety of other Latin materials that you can use as supplements – Lingua Angelica, guides for the National Latin Exam, Latin recitation CDs/DVDs, and copywork books.
The Latin curriculum available from Memoria Press is a great choice for homeschool moms who want to use Classical methods (like teaching Latin) but need a program that will help them teach (and maybe even learn along with their kids!). With their programs, you can teach Latin from elementary school right on through high school, and even prepare your students for the National Latin Exam.
#MEMORIA PRESS CHARTER PLUS#
Until we began using the MP Online Academy, we did flexible scheduling, basically 1 page of the Latin workbook every day OR the DVD lesson, plus daily recitations, 6 days/week year-round.If you’ve considered adding a Classical flare to your homeschool but found the thought of teaching Latin intimidating, Memoria Press has you covered. Note that Third Form is very demanding so you may wish to consider this when deciding where to start and how quickly to progress. An academically-inclined child with some Latin and grammar under her belt could do First Form in 4th or up without undue stress. The Games & Puzzles book can be frustrating to young students, I think it's helpful to have the answer key on hand and use it to provide "word banks" (which you can just write into the student book) for some of the games.įor a neurotypical child 4th - 6th with no Latin, Latina Christiana is a good beginning.
The Games & Puzzles book and the Review Worksheet book are scheduled in the plans, so having this with their keys is useful. Note that Grammar School Latin has several enrichment books, which are strongly suggested.
Then "Latin Review Games" are suggested for the remainder of the year, although I can't find any suggested games in the materials. The Grammar School Latin books do have 30 weeks of work in them. Other Resources for Learning Challenges.
