Latin Class

In 8th grade Latin II, students are currently exploring the six different tenses of Latin verbs by completing synopsis charts and performing in synopsis races. Due to the complexities of the Latin verb system in comparison to the English verb system, the students must be diligent to watch their verb endings carefully in order to fully grasp each tense. 

This semester alone, we will cover:
•  all verb conjugations in every tense and mood
•  3 noun declensions
•  all pronouns and adjective forms
•  translate passages from Vergil's Aeneid and Ovid's Metamorphosis.
