In Grammar I, students receive a systematic introduction to the rules of
Grammar, learning the content of the first part of the classic
Grammar of Emmanuel Alvarez, S.J.. This provides students with a
bird's eye view of the entire subject of Grammar, which is essential for
mastery.
Grammar I students are immersed in real
Latin, learning how to read Latin words in the very
first lesson and beginning to read the Latin New Testament in the second lesson.
We do not use artificial readings, but teach the children how to truly
read Latin.
By making use of available technology, we
are able to restore not only the content but also the method by which
Latin was taught in schools during periods when Latin was in regular
use. Our video prelections allow students to receive an on-demand
guide for every reading, just as if they had an expert Latin teacher in
their home, leading them along verse-by-verse.
Most lessons are intended to take one week
to master, but some review lessons will take much less. Lessons
are self-paced, with detailed instructions and automatically scored
online exams at the end of each lesson. Parents are required only
to provide supervision for their children and check assigned memory
work. No knowledge of Grammar, Latin or Greek is required.
