Latin I
Revision as of 19:48, 23 December 2007 by Memoriesonfilm (talk | contribs)
Latin 1 is offered at both Lancaster and Carlisle during both sessions.
Course Description
The Latin I curriculum covers the first three noun declension endings and four to five tenses of all four verb conjugations. The course also reviews Roman history starting from its fabled conception. Additionally, the course details the proper utilization of this inflected language and teaches the basic skills necessary to translate millenia old literature, such as the works of Catullus, Julius Caesar, et. al. The course post-test is the National Latin Examination level 1, which students have professed to be fairly easy in comparison to the coursework.
