A Bit of Bubbly
Posted in Latin and classical studies

Son2 finished Prima Latina a few days ago, and the new materials arrived today, hurrah! I decided on Minimus, the Latin program for 7- to 10-year-olds from Cambridge University Press. It looks great! It has an ongoing story in Latin about a family in Roman Britain, told in comic strip panels, and followed by vocabulary, grammar, and Roman Britain history and culture. I got the accompanying CD because I want a checkpoint for my pronunciation, even though it uses the classical pronunciation and we're using ecclesiastical. It turns out that I really like it -- so much so that I might have Son2 listen to it after all. Son2's comment when he looked the book over: "It's in Latin!" Um, yes... I have the feeling Son2 will really enjoy this. I bet Son1 will pick up the Minimus book from time to time and check it out for himself. |
