Heather in OK Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 How they introduce and explain things just does NOT make sense to me or my girls. We have been forcing our way through the declensions. For example, they introduce the cases and then several lessons later talk about what the nomitative case means and how to remember that. Why didn't they do that when they first introduced the cases???? They do the neuter and masculine declensions and several lessons later say, "Now is a good time to talk about gender....". I am having a horribly hard time teaching Latin! Is there a curriculum that is easier to follow and understand?? I think we'll just ditch this and work on the word root cards only. That seems to be more useful information (as far as understanding English words) than how to translate Latin and deline nouns. :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In The Great White North Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Were there explanations in LC? I don't remember any (certainly any that clicked with dd) I found that it helped to use the explanations from Henle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in OK Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Not many. But when there are, they are in really odd places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chai Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 We worked through LCI. I was sometimes confused in it. We have just started First Form latin, and I love it. It is so much easier to follow and understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
