Latin Primer 1 by Martha Wilson
Over half of the English language is derived from Latin. amateur -- amo, I love MontanaA -- mons, mountain patriotA -- patria, native land spectacular -- specto, I look at muralA -- murus, wall These and thousands of other words we use every day keep this deadlanguage -- a language of kings and poets, of scrolls and secrets -- alive. And this means that when we study Latin, we're not just learning about Rome -- we're learning about ourselves. Rediscover this time-honored language, which led classical education pioneer Dorothy Sayers to declare that Latin should be begun as early as possible . when the chanting of Amo, amas, amat is as ritually agreeable to the feelings as the chanting of eeny, meeny, miney, moe. In Latin Primer 1 Martha Wilson equips elementary school students (grades 3 and up) with a solid foundation in classical Latin. Newly revised and expanded, this text covers the very basics: vocabulary for everyday concepts like farming, sailing, the human body, constellations, and family; verb and noun endings; and other beginning grammar concepts. This updated teacher's edition includes new teacher's notes, weekly quizzes, and a full glossary. Those of you familiar with the older editions of Latin Primer 1 are probably wondering what's different about these new editions. To begin, the content and teaching approach of this third edition is fundamentally the same as before. We have added a few exercises, moved some of the vocabulary around, etc., but these new editions won't force teachers or parents to struggle through a long period of adjustment. If anything, this new edition will be much, much easier to use.| SKU | Nicht verfügbar |
