LONG TERM GOALS
Students start the exploration of the life history and literary accomplishments of the poet Publius Vergilius Maro, most commonly referred to as Vergil. Initial themes of the literature are discussed and explored in written form. Students begin to consider the meaning and examine figurative language. In exploring the life history, students consider underlying political motives, stated or implied. Latin sentence structure, and poetic devices indicative of Vergil's epic are pointed out to students. There is ongoing coverage of previously learned Latin vocabulary and new Latin vocabulary is introduced. Students are encouraged to recognize and formulate English derivatives from the Latin vocabulary. They endeavor to develop sight translation skills and attempt comprehension of the target language. Students refresh pronunciation of the Latin text with practice; they recognize, utilize, review and reinforce previously learned grammar; and recognize classical mythology and its characters/beings.

LONG TERM GOALS
Students continue with the exploration, reading, comprehension and translation of Vergil's The Aeneid. Characteristic themes of the literature will continue to be explored both by discussion and in written form. In addition to interpreting meaning from text, students consider tone, mood, imagery, and figurative language. As pertinent, there is ongoing discussion of stated or implied political motives. More attention is paid to Latin sentence structure, and poetic devices indicative of Vergil's epic, with a goal of having students increasingly acquire independence in locating and recognizing peculiarities of poetic expression, archaisms and Grecisms. The ongoing coverage of previously learned Latin vocabulary and new Latin vocabulary continues. Students continue to be encouraged to recognize and formulate English derivatives from the Latin vocabulary. Students practice and build on the skills of sight translation and the ability to comprehend passages in the target language. Students practice scansion of Latin poetry; they read and pronounce Latin text; they recognize, utilize, review and reinforce previously learned grammar; and recognize classical mythology and its characters/beings.
