Summer Latin Institute – Day 45

Day 45 was Monday, August 13.

And yes, once again, I led the 8:30 a.m. optional review of the previous night’s reading, which was our students’ first foray into the Odes of Horace.

Morning drill: Horace Odes 1.5, 1.6, 1.9, and 4.7.

Lunchtime optional sight reading from our old friend, Vergil’s Aeneid.

After lunch, students continued reading Tacitus’ Annals, Augustine’s Confessions, or Vergil’s Eclogues in their respective elective.

Afternoon optional sight reading from the Lives of Suetonius.

Does all of this sound too good to be true? Tell your friends. Tell your students. Just think—You could be doing this next summer!

More soon…
