Using Jurassic Latin in Your Classroom
Frank Kelland - Texas Virtual Academy Hallsville, Hallsville ISD/K12 Latin is alive & well in its descendants, the Romance languages. By searching the Romance Languages for existing cognate phrases (Greetings, Departures, Meals, Houses, Transportation, etc.) we can recreate the original Latin phrases that are now lost to modern students. Such phrases can expand students" vocabulary and show the impact of Latin on the modern countries in which the phrases have been used since Roman occupation. Attendees will work together to re-create Latin phrases from modern Latin progeny. Strand:
