Teach your children classical Latin with Latin's Not so Tough! This Level 1 kit is the first of six levels that together will bring students to a thorough knowledge of vocabulary, grammar, and Latin translation. Level 1 is designed for early elementary students only, who will require additional practice and a slower introduction; older students may start with Level 2 or 3.
The workbook features phonics and handwriting exercises that will help children to learn how Latin words are pronounced and spelled. Tracing, matching, and writing exercises are included, as well as a set of flashcards to cut out in the back. Lessons cover the Latin alphabet, diphthongs, special consonants and more.
This quiz and exam book includes quizzes, a comprehensive midterm, a comprehensive final, translation exercises, vocabulary identification questions, and some simple conjugations. Answers provided in the back; parents are supposed to cut out the tests.
The short "Answers Only" answer key is a small booklet that features line-listed answers for the workbook. Answers are organized by page number.
Keyed to the workbook level and page, the flashcards feature a letter on the front, and the pronunciation on the back. These flashcards are printed on thin cardstock, and are the same as the pages (on normal paper) that are in the back of each workbook. Cut and hole-punched, a ring and plastic storage bag are included. 44 cards.
This "Short Kit" includes the following:
- Latin's Not so Tough Workbook, Level 1, 106 pages, spiralbound softcover with cut-out flashcards
- Latin's Not So Tough Answers-Only Answer Key, Level 1, paperback booklet
- Latin's Not So Tough Level 1 Quizzes and Exams booklet
