4 units

Salvēte et bene vēnistis ad linguam Latīnam! In this course, students will be introduced to the Latin language and begin developing skills in both written and spoken Latin. The curriculum covers chapters 1–18 of Familia Romana , with the remainder completed in Beginning Latin II during the spring term. From the very first class, students will engage with Latin through reading and speaking. By the end of the semester, they will have a strong foundation in introductory Latin forms, vocabulary, and syntax to build upon in the second half of this year-long sequence.
