from $590.00

Course Description

Are you a Latin teacher who wants opportunities to connect and engage with fellow Latin teachers about lessons? Are you a new or experienced teacher who is looking to become familiar with the latest research on SLA and best practices? This course will explore the theory of second language acquisition and how it applies to teaching Latin. Lessons will focus on 1) making Latin accessible to all learners, 2) effective technology for Latin teaching and learning, 3) creating a curriculum based on cultural themes, and 4) supporting students towards proficiency in Latin. We will also explore how to create a personal learning network to stay connected to other Latin teachers and share ideas.
