Calendar
You will be expected to do ten chapters
per semester in Latin I for high school credit. This means that you
have almost two weeks to complete each chapter in a normal school year.
I recommend that you do one or more exercises a day and allow three
days to polish the translation and do the other assignments, including
the Internet assignment. How fast you go is up to you, but in studying
any language it is best you work at it every day. You can go faster
if you wish, but remember to allow for the lag in Internet communication
between you and me. I would suggest creating a plan for yourself using
the
calendar.
You will be tempted to put off working
on Latin every day. Noli agere! Don't do this! The biggest
problem that past COOLSchool Latin students have had has been to work
on the course in a regular manner. Even though COOLSchool allows ten
months to finish any course, you should normally take one semester.
The record for Latin I, First Semester, is a little more than two months
during the summer. You will most likely take more than this. Plan to
spend a lot of time on this course!
