How then shall we study Latin? Cycle 2 Hands on Learning Folder Match Up!! FREE CLICK HERE FOR FREE COPY I am sharing with everyone a copy of what I have made for my daughter to be able to study this year's Latin memory work. All you need is a pair of scissors, two envelopes, a printer and a file folder! Easy peasy! You can make this interactive folder for your child to learn the 1st Conjugation Endings for Latin. I used the same concept for last year's Latin and it can be made to be progressive with your child's learning level in the memory work. I start out with the pieces cut in columns. This way it only requires they first recognize the proper tense that the combination goes in and whether it's plural or singular. Once they have mastered that and can consistently match it up this way, then I would cut the pieces to be individual, requiring your child to recognize the proper person and whether it's plural, singular and the tense it falls under. Additionally, you can use the blank table from page 2 (above) to have them do their copywork on. Just print an extra copy of this page and put a page protector over it or laminate it. Then you can have them write in their copywork with a dry erase marker for the Latin when they're ready to progress to that level. I intentionally did not make a label for the cover. This way your child can make their own cover by drawing a picture, putting stickers or whatever they would like to make the Latin matching folder their own this year. I think it adds an element of "buy in" to the whole idea of doing their Latin! This is a favorite way to "teach" the Latin each year! You can get a FREE copy of this document to print yourself and make. All you have to do is click on the above link under the pink flower folder. This will be included with the Year 2 - Weeks 1-24 Enrichment Teaching Plan which is ready to be released the end of this week! Yay!!!

Good writers use a variety of sentences when they write. There are FOUR different types of sentences that writers can use: declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory. To understand each type of sentence, look at the graphic above OR look in your class notes. You have a quiz on types of sentences on Friday September 23rd. On the quiz, you will have to identify types of sentences and you will have to read sentences and determine the correct ending punctuation mark. (? ! . ) On Monday, I will give you a practice packet to complete to help you prepare for the quiz. These websites will help you practice the four types of sentences: http://www.quia.com/quiz/106467.html http://www.quia.com/pop/35934.html http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/clubhouse/index_pre.html Reading Response: Take a book hunt. Look at how authors use the different types of sentences in their writing. Find an example of each type of sentence. At the end of your response, please cite your source. Tell me what book your sentences came from. (It is fine to use more than one book.) To see a good example posting, please see Miss Schaech's posting.

Here's the same info from the last post in case you've arrived directly at this post, instead of the blog. :) (Does that even make sense?) . . . . . I'm working on getting a packet together that contains all 5 declensions, the noun cases, a blank sheets and cards to place for a review. For now, here is the 2nd declension. I print these on card stock and (for now) put them in page protectors. I file them in my CC Review notebook under Latin and pull out whatever week we are on. Its hanging on my mini magnetic boards....until my big one arrives. More on that next week....
Here is my printable latin noun declension chart to go along with my verb conjugations chart I have done in a previous post.
