Classical Learning Resource Center offers New Latin Class for Academic Year 2010-2011 PDF Print E-mail
Written by Nicholas Chancy   
Thursday, 16 September 2010

The CLRC is offering a special Latin class for children ~ ages 7-10. Children and their parents take this class together. The class meets each week for an hour-long lesson filled with exercises, games, and songs. Specific homework suggestions are given after each class for ongoing practice during the week. Homework is completed at the discretion of the parents dependent upon the needs of their children. Some may need or want more practice, some less. Testing is available for those who wish it but is not a required part of the course.

CLRC Latin instructor, Anne Van Fossen, has taught Latin to her own children and to private school students as young as Kindergarten. Young children love ancient languages! Many high school students are not interested in Greek and Latin -- either because they think it is useless or too difficult (they've already been told that they're not smart enough to do certain things). Young children know they can do anything and are interested in everything!

Young children absorb Latin into everything that they do. They use Latin verb and noun paradigms for jump rope chants and march around the playground in Roman army formation chanting Latin pronouns. Children love to memorize. They love patterns. They can't process sophisticated grammar or content but they sure can learn vocabulary and forms! By the time these children are in 5th or 6th grade they can be ready to take on Latin as it is usually taught in High School or College.

Latin For Young Children meets on Wednesdays at 12:30 Pacific Time
Tuition is $125 for the semester (September – December)
Enrollment is still open for this semester.
