For Friday please complete Lesson 14 except EXERCISE B on page 62.  We’ll do that in class. For Lesson 14’s quiz, know your vocabulary (3rd conjugation verbs), this week’s Latin saying (Credo in Unum Deum), and the conjugation for 3rd conjugation verbs.  You will be asked to conjugate two of your vocabulary words with the new 3rd conjugation endings. Looking forward to Latin in the New Year!

Finish Visual Latin, Lesson 14. Quiz for Friday:  Memorize the Ablative of Time phrases on page 64.  I’ll give you the Latin, you will give me the English (I hope!). It’s almost Christmas Break!

I can almost hear the jingle bells ringing! For Friday, complete Lesson 13 except for Exercise B on page 58 – which we will do in class. Make sure as your memorize your new 2nd conjugation vocabulary verbs to learn ALL FOUR principle parts.  Principle parts endings for 2nd conjugation verbs are “eo,” “ére,” “ui,” and “itus.”  Don’t forget the accent mark on the 2nd principle part.  I’ll have all principle parts listed on Quizlet by Sunday evening.  If you don’t get an email invitation to Quizlet, let me know. Quiz for Friday:  This week’s Latin saying, vocabulary, and conjugating two verbs in the present and/or imperfect tenses.

Welcome to December! I know you have a great deal due in other classes for December 2nd, so I’ll make your assignment as light as possible. Finish translating chapter 8.  There isn’t much left. Quiz for Friday:  Grammar chart on the Relative pronoun “qui, quae, quod” and vocabulary words:  campus, I (m.) through clamor, oris (m.).  I will give you the Latin. Have a blessed Thanksgiving!

Welcome to December! Please complete Lesson XII except exercise B on page 54.  We will do that in class. As you memorize your vocabulary words, remember to memorized ALL four principal parts.  It is not enough any more to only know the first part such as:  voco means I call.  You must know:  voco, vocare, vocavi, vocatus.  These are the four principal parts of voco.  They translate:  I call, to call (infinitive), I called, have called.  All the verbs in this lesson are 1st conjugation verbs and follow this pattern, except the irregular verbs “do” and “sto.”  They must be memorized individually. Have a blessed Thanksgiving!

Happy almost Thanksgiving! Quiz for this Friday:  BOTH the Hic, Haec, Hoc chart AND the Ille, Illa, Illud chart AND the specifically marked vocabulary for chapter 8. Translate WELL through Line 70 of Chapter 8. See you Friday!

For Friday please finish Lesson XI.  These is no new vocabulary, but review everyday the present, imperfect, and future forms of “to be” or “sum.”  You could also review past vocabulary by playing games on the quizlet site. Try to complete exercise B on page 50.  If you can’t quite get it, at least know the vocabulary for each sentence.  We did the first four in class.
