Caecilia et Verus et Urbs Vastata Set

Royal Fireworks Press offers a Latin curriculum that you can implement for children, even if you don’t have any knowledge of Latin yourself.

Dr. Frances R. Spielhagen’s Latin curriculum is the pinnacle of the natural inductive approach. Rather than being forced into translating Latin, children are challenged to absorb Latin, deriving meaning from the illustrations that go with the words and developing vocabulary and grammar gradually in the natural thread of language acquisition. The illustrations of young Caecilia and her family are integrated with photographs taken at archaeological sites in Rome. Explanations in the instructor manuals provide background and additional information.

Adults who have studied Latin will find the language familiar but the materials new and engagingly beautiful. Adults who have not studied Latin will be able to comprehend the language and imbue children and themselves in the Roman world and its Latin language.

The instructor manuals provide the grammar and forms of the vocabulary that the children are learning. All of the books contain downloadable links to hear Dr. Spielhagen enunciating the Latin so that adults and children alike can hear the correct pronunciation.

Table of Contents
Sample

Second Form Latin continues the journey of Latin grammar. Building on what the student learned the previous year, Second Form reviews all material in First Form, completes the verb paradigms for all four conjugations in the indicative active and passive, and much more! Once they have finished Second Form, students will have crossed the halfway mark on their Latin journey! Second Form employs the identical format of First Form—an attractive, concise Student Text, systematic presentation in five units, extensive Workbook exercises, and a Teacher Manual with everything you need to successfully teach this course.

Based on twenty years of teaching experience, the revolutionary “grammar-first” First Form Series will be your guide as you and your students successfully climb the mountain of Latin Grammar all the way to the top! The uniqueness of the First Form Series lies in two features: (1) Commitment to the trivium model of teaching grammar systematically in order to facilitate retention and understanding, rather than topically, to facilitate translation; and (2) Extensive workbook exercises to ensure skills mastery and rapid recognition of inflected forms.

The 9.5×7 inch First Form Latin Student Text is small, concise, and unintimidating, with 31 two-page lessons on uncluttered facing pages in an attractive two-color format. It offers a systematic presentation of grammar in five logical units and includes appendices with English grammar, prayers, conversational Latin, a vocabulary index, and more.

After finishing Second Form, the student will have mastered:

Six indicative active and three indicative passive tenses of all four verb conjugations
Five noun declensions, including -er/-ir nouns and i-stem nouns
Adjectives in three declensions
Personal pronouns
Prepositions
365 vocabulary words (185 in First Form, and another 180 new words in Second Form)

Dr. Dave’s Teaching Manual Set

sarah — Thu, 18 Aug 2022 23:45:03 +0000

Dr. Dave’s Teaching Manuals show how to teach, interest, and excite elementary and middle school students in science.

Dr. David Purvis says: “Teaching science to children can be the most wonderful and exciting experience. But knowledge is not enough for success at this level. What a teacher really needs to know is how to teach, how to engage students in hands-on, inquiry-based science.”

Dr. Dave’s Teaching Manuals give teachers and science instructors of children between the ages of 8 and 14 (grades 3-8):

Visual and eye-catching activities to impart simple scientific concepts
Experiments, projects, and artwork ideas that enable children to discover and construct knowledge for themselves
Safety and clean-up tips, as well as advice on how to save money on materials
Verbal jokes and riddles that appeal to children and help them remember facts and concepts
Tips and suggestions throughout for further study for gifted or advanced students

Each heavily illustrated, full-color manual comes with downloadable pictures and diagrams that can be projected to animate group discussions. Reproducible worksheets are provided at the back of the books and are also available for download. No instructor can fail to appreciate that these guides will enliven and clarify their teaching of science!

Notebooking is a great way to reinforce lesson content and create a record of what students have learned! These notebooks are perfect for those who’d like a ready-to-go version to save time, versus copying out the questions given in the textbook.

In the text, the “oldest” students are instructed to do the “older” question as well as the “oldest” question, and this notebook also provides both assignments (sometimes with slight alterations).

The notebooking pages feature writing-based questions that ask students to explain their reasoning or the concepts they’re studying, some drawing exercises, graphs & charts, and research-based questions. “Challenge Lessons” ask students to make their own notebooking pages.

This “oldest student” notebook is ideal for students in Grades 4-6.

Consumable and non-reproducible.
