Description

The goal in Book Three is for students to be able to read original Latin texts with little help. The readings offer students the opportunity to read real Roman literature while they are learning the language, rather than the invented stories most beginners "cut their teeth" on before they are allowed to jump into the classics. To aid in comprehension, a list of characters mentioned in the passage and a glossary of words that have not been introduced yet in the lesson vocabulary are also included. Reading comprehension questions, which often include both Latin questions (to be answered in Latin) and English questions (to be answered in English) follow the readings and reinforce vocabulary. Additional segments which crop up in most lessons include Colloquāmur, Culture Corners and Derivative Detective.
