With daily timed drills, Memoria Math Challenge is designed to give students that math practice and also to help the teacher measure students’ immediate recall. We start with addition, subtraction, and number dictation in kindergarten, and ramp up to 200 daily problems by the end of first grade.

If students are able to master their math facts in the primary years, they can devote more time to complex math operations in grammar school and upper school.

Level A focuses on writing numbers, counting, and addition and subtraction facts up to seven
Level B focuses on addition and subtraction facts up to 10
Level C focuses on addition and subtraction facts up to 18

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)

Probably the most notable difference between the two is that v is pronounced /v/ in Ecclesiastical Latin, and /w/ in Classical Latin. So, veni, vidi, vici becomes weni, widi, wiki in Classical Latin.

Here is a collection of eleven articles that discuss the traditional view of education as a mechanism to pass on our civilization to our children. And not just any civilization, but the civilization of the Christian West – the civilization that grew out of the cultures of three cities: Athens, Rome, and Jerusalem, cultures which were taken, transformed, and transmitted by Western Christianity for over 1,500 years and which, though beset today by other, non-academic educational agendas, are still the basis of life and learning.

These articles are taken largely from two issues of Memoria Press’ magazine, The Classical Teacher – two issues with articles that garnered more responses from our readers than any others, and which we thought were worthy of reading again.
