Resources Needed

1. Access to Google Classroom (requires a free Google account) : Google Classroom will be the primary means of giving assignments, turning assignments in to be reviewed, keeping those assignments organized, and providing general information to students. It is a free service - all it requires is a free Google account to use. Since Google does not allow children under 13 to set up their own account, a parent will have to be the primary user of the account and log in with their student to use the account. The Google Classroom website will have all links to activities, digital worksheets, video and audio activities, etc. Students will complete the work presented on their Classroom page and turn in their work for me to review and comment on. If you are not familiar with Google Classroom, I will provide a lesson on how it works (it is very easy to use and is so helpful in keeping students organized - it make it impossible for work to get lost). You can click here to see a short video about what Google Classroom is, and click here for slightly longer video (about 5 minutes long) that gives a bit more detail on what students will see when they use Google Classroom.
   • If you send me an email at kylebrown@charlestonlatin.com, I will give you access to a sample "Google Classroom" Latin class (which showcases the use of the Google Apps and other resources students would use in an actual "Lowcountry Latin" class). Google Classroom is only accessible to those with a Gmail or G Suite account - if your email does not come from a Gmail account, then I can set up a temporary account for you using a "@charlestonlatin.com" address so you can check out my Google Classroom sample page.
2. Access to the Quia website : No purchase is required. I maintain a teacher account, and will create a student access account (whose username and password I will send to you) that will allow students, parents, and me to keep track of how long is spent on review practices, learning games, quizzes, etc. These activities will also be posted the Google Classroom page, but Quia actually keeps track of the time spent on reviewing language, history, and culture concepts. It takes the guesswork out of making sure students are spending the time reviewing important concepts in a fun and interactive way. A sample page can be found here, if you want to see what Quia looks like and the kind of learning activities it can provide.
