The teaching unit is the first part of a series of three teaching units with the following objectives :
The unit covers the following theoretical subjects:
Theoretical points will be illustrated by a series of sentences, which will be translated during the course. The translation skill will be developed through two types of exercises: 1) versions done in class, without a dictionary (only the vocabulary that is not supposed to be known is given); 2) a cursive reading to be done outside the class, independently.
In addition to the course, students must study approximately 1000 vocabulary words (in both Latin-French and FrenchLatin senses). The course will also include a progressive introduction to the theme (writing in Latin).
See "Méthodes d'enseignement".
The teaching unit is subject to continuous assessment. The final mark (June) corresponds to the weighted average of the different parts of the assessment:
