Last, but hardly least, Koine Greek is the language of the New Testament, and the study of the original language will gradually unveil the richness, depth, and beauty of the New Testament message.

This classical, beautiful, and widely spoken language will be a treasure for children to learn.

There is a distinction, however, between just learning common words and phrases, which is the approach of many French programs, and knowing the language well enough to communicate fluently and accurately.

This book employs the pedagogy and structure of our popular Latin for Children series combined with immersion-style dialogues and vocabulary so that the French language will be taught well and thoroughly.

The French for Children series emphasizes grammar and the parts of speech as vital tools for correctly speaking and understanding French.

Features: 17 weekly chapters, including 3 review chapters and an end-of-book review.

153 commonly used vocabulary words and 43 conversational words and phrases.

Learn grammatical concepts, such as verb conjugation, tense, and noun gender.

Second Edition Lingua Angelica introduces your students to translation in a systematic and doable method. Christian Latin should always be the first step in learning to translate Latin literature because it has shorter, simpler sentences and clearer word structure than classical authors. Just like you wouldn't study calculus before you learn algebra, you shouldn't approach Caesar, Cicero, or Virgil before you conquer Christian Latin. As Cheryl Lowe put it, "Christian Latin is infinitely easier to read than classical authors, so why would you start anywhere else?" The Student Book provides facing vocabulary, space for interlinear translation, and grammar word study exercises. This book is designed to be used with the sold-separately Lingua Angelica Teacher's Guide and the Lingua Angelica Music CD. From Memoria Press. Learn More

Omnibus is the classical Christian educational answer to history, theology, and literature. Omnibus is a Latin term meaning ``all encompassing.`` Completing Omnibus VI will provide the student a full credit in Modern U.S. and British History II, Doctrine and Theology VI, and Modern U.S. and British Literature II. An additional feature is the inclusion of six essays in each year (18 total in Omnibus IV, V &VI) exposing students to various other disciplines to consider for courses of study in college and careers. Combining these disciplines will have students grow in their appreciation of the unity of all knowledge, and all the material is taught through a biblical worldview. Like Omnibus III, Omnibus VI covers modern U.S. and British history. But like Omnibus IV and V it studies more difficult texts, incorporates the growing rhetorical nature of the student, and engages them at a more mature, higher academic level. Teaching with the emphasis on ideas, not simply information. The Teacher CD-ROM duplicates the student text and inserts answers to all questions, provides grading tools, and much more. This daily approach includes lesson plans and will make teaching and interacting with the greatest works of Western Civilization both enjoyable and profitable. Students will also apply and further develop their skills in composition, logic and aesthetics. Students completing all six years of Omnibus will have carefully studied every book of the Bible, too. The student text assigns the readings in the primary and secondary books for each semester. We have gathered these books into discounted kits. The primary reading covers books that the student will interact with most. Papers, tests, field trips, etc. will generally be more geared to the primary books. Secondary reading is not necessarily less important, but it is given less emphasis. Recommended Grade 12. From Veritas Press. Learn More

The First Form Latin Flashcards are pre-cut and cover the vocabulary (Latin, lesson number, and any derivative, on one side; English on the other), Latin sayings (Latin and lesson number on one side, English on the other), and grammar forms (cue word and declension or tense name on one side; Latin forms and lesson number on the other).

Written by Cheryl Lowe (author of the best-selling Grammar School Latin), First Form and its sister Latin products have been used by more than 100,000 students across the world to learn Latin! First Form’s grammar-first approach focuses on grammar forms and vocabulary because these are the skills suitable for the grammar stage student. All beginners—regardless of age—are in the grammar stage of learning. Syntax (how to use the grammar) and translation are logic and rhetoric stage skills, respectively, and quickly overwhelm the student unless introduced at a slow, gentle pace and taught for mastery. First Form is the ideal text for all beginners, grades 5 and up, or is a great follow-up to Grammar School Latin at any age. Now every school and homeschool can have a truly successful Latin program that creates Latin scholars instead of Latin drop-outs.

Based on twenty years of teaching experience, this revolutionary “grammar-first” series will be your guide as you and your students successfully climb the mountain of Latin Grammar all the way to the top! The uniqueness of the First Form Series lies in two features: (1) Commitment to the trivium model of teaching grammar systematically in order to facilitate retention and understanding, rather than topically, to facilitate translation; and (2) Extensive workbook exercises to ensure skills mastery and rapid recognition of inflected forms.
