Latin

Posted in Charlotte Mason

Song School Latin is fun for Little Son!

Photobucket

Classical Academic Press uses Classical pronunciation.

Latina Christiana I uses Ecclesiastical  pronunciation.

So while Little Son says "Salve!" (sounds like salway)...

Big kids say "Salve!" (sounds like salvay).

Charlotte Mason did not think that Latin was suitable for young children,

(perhaps because it was not as enjoyable as Song School Latin.)

The PNEU schedules show that Latin was not introduced until ages nine - twelve.

"Latin is taught at the House of Education by means of narration after each section has been thoroughly studied in grammer, syntax and style. The literature studied increases in difficulty as the pupil advances in grammar, etc. Nothing but good Latin is ever narrated, so the pupil acquires style as well as structure. The substance of the passage is usually reproduced with the phraseology and style of the original and both students and children learn what is really Latin and realise that it is a language and not a mere grammar."  Vol 6 pg 209  Charlotte Mason's Original Homeschooling Series.

Now that is a challenge!
