High School Latin I
Latin I is designed for students with little or no previous experience with Latin. The course runs for two semesters and covers the Oxford Latin Course Part I. Students who plan to take the AP Latin exam during their junior year should begin this class in 7th grade.
Latin I covers 1st, 2nd, and 3rd declension nouns and adjectives; personal, demonstrative, and relative pronouns; adverbs, conjunctions, prepositions, all 4 verb conjugations, the irregular verbs sum, possum eō, volō, and nōlō, and the indicative, infinitive, and imperative moods.
Latin I is open to students from Grade 7 to adult or with permission of the instructor. Students should purchase "The Oxford Latin Course Part I - 2nd Edition."
