An introduction to both the Latin language and the cultural world of the Romans, it also develops English literacy skills through derivation tasks and two-way translation exercises, which promote the understanding of English as well as Latin. Cultural topics, supported by background notes, and primary sources, included for study and analysis, enable students to engage with authentic Roman history and acquire a broad understanding on which to build in future study.   - Language learning is split between Core and Additional to ensure effective differentiation and flexible timetabling.   - Fun and varied exercises include word identification, word manipulation, vocab acquisition \/ consolidation, and translation from English into Latin.   - 30 words of new vocabulary in each chapter build towards a total of 360.   - Vocabulary is consistently and constantly consolidated to give an unshakeable \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis exciting new Latin course has first-rate integration of linguistic and paralinguistic material. The carefully graded stories are all the sorts of stories that the Romans did tell about themselves and to their children. * Melvin Cooley, Warwick School *\u003cbr\u003eOne of the many strengths of this course is that it can be adapted for learners of different interests and abilities. The stories and background material chosen for both books are relevant, appealing and a great knowledge base to understand the world of the Romans - women included - without resorting to sugar coating. * Ana Martin, Latin Tutor Online *\u003cbr\u003eIt is accessible and carefully structured to enable pupils to develop reading skills and a firm foundation in grammar ... It offers a return to teaching Latin through mythology; the stories in Chapter 1 immediately engaged and entertained our pupils. * Alexandra Boyt, Director of the JACT Latin Summer School 2009-2018 *\u003cbr\u003ede Romanis seemed heaven-sent to help me! * Jo Lashley, Lead Latin tutor at Wolsey Hall, Oxford *\u003cbr\u003eThe de Romanis textbooks have breathed new life into Latin learning! * Emma Kate Trow-Poole, The King’s School, Worcester *\u003cbr\u003eLatin lessons with \u003ci\u003ede Romanis\u003c\/i\u003e feel like a hybrid of English and Maths. This straddles the ability and interest range of the class really nicely, but, more importantly, is preparing pupils far better for progress – and fluency – in reading Latin ... Time will tell how this plays out with uptake at GCSE etc., but what I am confident in is that every pupil will finish this year feeling positive about Latin and feeling like Latin is the subject they actually get. * Dom, Head of Classics at King Edward's School, Birmingham *\u003cbr\u003eThe first thing to strike about this course is the ‘meatiness’ of it: the amount of learning material which it provides. Anyone teaching from this course will not go wanting for both cultural and language resources. ... There is an impressive amount of material contained both in the cultural sections as well as the language sections. * The Journal of Classics Teaching *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 7: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe History of Rome - Kings and the Republic\u003c\/b\u003e Introduction and Sources to Study  Core Language \u003ci\u003eincluding the following Latin stories\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003e-Rome elects its second king;\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eHoratius kills his sister; \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe rape of Lucretia; \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eCincinnatus is chosen as dictator; \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat to do about Hannibal?\u003c\/b\u003e Additional Language  \u003cb\u003eChapter 8: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eOratory and Cicero\u003c\/b\u003e Introduction and Sources to Study Core Language \u003ci\u003eincluding the following Latin stories\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003e- Cato the Elder;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Cicero and Catiline;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Cicero and his daughter;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Cicero's death;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Pliny prefers to study than to go and see a volcano\u003c\/b\u003e Additional Language  \u003cb\u003eChapter 9: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Army and Julius Caesar\u003c\/b\u003e Introduction and Sources to Study Core Language \u003ci\u003eincluding the following Latin stories\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003cb\u003eMarius reforms the Roman army;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Lucullus is denied a triumph;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Caesar launches an invasion of Britain;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Caesar conquers Vercingetorix and all of Gaul;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Civil War in Rome\u003c\/b\u003e Additional Language  \u003cb\u003eChapter 10: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eEgypt and Cleopatra\u003c\/b\u003e Introduction and Sources to Study Core Language \u003ci\u003eincluding the following Latin stories\u003c\/i\u003e -\u003cb\u003e Herodotus travels to Egypt; \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlexandria;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Cleopatra and Julius Caesar; C\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eleopatra meets Mark Antony\u003c\/b\u003e Additional Language  \u003cb\u003eChapter 11: Augustus and Image\u003c\/b\u003e Introduction and Sources to Study Core Language \u003ci\u003eincluding the following Latin stories\u003c\/i\u003e -\u003cb\u003e Octavian becomes Julius Caesar's heir; Oct\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eavian, Mark Antony and Lepidus;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Actium;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Augustus as \u003ci\u003eprinceps\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Augustus and the poets\u003c\/b\u003e Additional Language  \u003cb\u003eChapter 12: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eRoman Britain and Boudicca\u003c\/b\u003e Introduction and Sources to Study Core Language \u003ci\u003eincluding the following Latin stories\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003cb\u003eThe emperor Claudius invades Britain; \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eBoudicca leads a rebellion;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Boudicca is defeated;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Calgacus rouses the Scots;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Hadrian's Wall\u003c\/b\u003e Additional Language  \u003cb\u003eBibliography\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cb\u003eGrammar Reference \u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cb\u003eGlossary of Names\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cb\u003eVocabulary List \u003c\/b\u003e(Latin to English and English to Latin)","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49083870871895,"sku":"9781350100077","price":29.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/de-romanis-book-2-9781350100077","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
