Latin ~ week 2

JMJ

Things were a bit hectic, but considering we had two classes meet at the same time, I thing it was a success!  We went over the root words nomen, pro, and prae.  We briefly talked about metaphor and how the very definition of our words are sometimes metaphors.  Like when we express understanding a concept as "grasping" the concept.

Dominicans and Franciscans, remember to work on filling in your cards with derivatives and review the roots from last week.   Also, do the workbook pages for chap. 2 in your Little Latin Readers.  I'm sorry we didn't have time to listen to the CD in class for the Franciscans.  I will to try to listen to Chapters 1-3 in class next week.

Carmelites, discuss the three roots and their meanings.  Make the cards at home if you are going it.  Otherwise, just talk about the roots and try to find and point out derivatives throughout the week.
