Latin C

World Languages

In Latin C, students continue to build on their knowledge of the Latin language and the Roman people. They begin to study more advanced concepts in Latin grammar and continue developing skills in vocabulary and etymology. They continue to develop reading skills as they prepare to make the transition from adapted Latin to original texts. The students will complete this course with a confidence in translating Latin – single sentences as well as extended passages. They will be able to recognize Latin roots, prefixes, and suffixes in English words and thereby enrich their knowledge of their native tongue. Our eighth-grade students also participate in the National Latin Exam.
