Syllabus/Daily Assignments - Latin 101 Fall 2007

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Assignments listed beside the dates are to BE COMPLETED BY THAT DATE.        
                       
R = Read, V = Vocabulary, Ex = Exercise in Shelmerdine (Shelm identifies named exercises in Shelmerdine), ExOL = Exercise in Shelmerdine OnLine, ConLat = Conversation in Traupman

For Intro and Vocab you should read the grammatical information on the pages listed and study the vocabulary words for that new lesson, so that when I introduce these in class, you will already be familiar with the words, the grammatical points to be covered, and the general terminology to be used in that class as I reinforce and reexplain these as presented in the book.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Each lesson in Shelmerdine has additional exercises online that are self-correcting. (The online site for Shelmerdine’s Introduction to Latin is linked HERE and on the main page for this course). I will assign these, but not always cover them in class – they are intended as supplementary work to reinforce the principles of that lesson. A crossword that summarizes grammatical principles, form drills and vocabulary is included for each lesson and should always be completed at the end of the lesson. Vocabulary drills, such as flash cards, and form recognition drills are also included.


Some Independent Study Aids:

Latin Morphological tool - enter the full Latin form and you should get a complete grammatical analysis of the word + a dictionary entry
Dictionary headwords - searchable by Latin roots and English meanings - enter laud to search for laudo, laudabilis, laudatio etc.
English to Latin word search
Allen and Greenough's New Latin Grammar for Schools and Colleges (eds. J. B. Greenough, G. L. Kittredge, A. A. Howard, Benj. L. D'Ooge) - a fairly advanced and comprehensive Latin grammar

Latin Library - best currently available collection of searchable Latin texts, classical, late Latin, and some Medieval and Neo-Latin
Other helpful Latin and Classics Links (mostly linked to Oxford Latin Course) - John Gruber-Miller, Cornell College
