Description

This new Latin course offers an engaging introduction to both the language and the cultural world of ancient Rome. By combining linguistic learning with authentic Roman history and culture, students can develop their English literacy skills while gaining a broad understanding of this fascinating period.

The course is structured into Core and Additional sections, allowing for flexible timetabling and effective differentiation. Fun and varied exercises include word identification, vocabulary acquisition, and translation from English into Latin, with 30 new words introduced in each chapter towards a total of 360. Clear explanations of grammar and early use of Latin stories build student confidence from the start.

Students will explore Roman mythology, religious customs, and festivals, as well as prepare for the transition to the world of ancient Rome by studying prophecy and historical figures such as Caesar. With its systematic approach and engaging exercises, this first volume sets the stage for further study in the second part of the course.
