Week of 12/3-7/2012

This week we will read/translate the seven chapters of Book 6, then finish it off in English. 

Time to wrap up Caesar, move on to the final (for those unlucky enough to have to take it), and prepare for Vergil in January.

Week of 11/26-30.

This week we will complete Book 5 in English translation so we can cover as much of the Latin in Book 6 as possible. If it looks like we will run out of time with Book 6, we will complete it in English as well. 

Book 6 is where Caesar describes the culture of the Gauls and it is quite interesting to read Caesar as a cultural historian. We don't want to skip it. 

Plan on a test over Book 5 on Friday. More on that as I get the test together. 

Thanksgiving Week

We will work on the Saturnalia project on Monday and Tuesday.
