Sixth Grade Language
Latin 6
(a one year core academic course)
The objective of sixth
grade Latin is to
increase the student’s
awareness of the
workings of language in
general, using Latin as
a vehicle. Through the
use of the course text,
the sixth grade student
gains a rudimentary
knowledge of the process
and structure of
language, while
increasing his/her
vocabulary. Drills
reinforce grammar
concepts, vocabulary,
and classical Latin
pronunciation. Students
develop reading
comprehension of simple
Latin stories, and
guided discovery in
translations from Latin
to English is a feature
of most lessons. Through
this, students become
acquainted with Roman
history and mythology.
