Once I've established the students understand the difference between am/um and ās/ōs, I can then ask students to pick a word to answer to what he's eating in each picture. Obviously I'd mix up the order & add more examples. This could also be reversed - choose the right pic. 6/10

In this example, I wanted the distinction between the accusative singular and accusative plural to be the MOST OBVIOUS feature of the text. I have a set of pictures of a pacman eating objects. "quid cōnsūmit?" is answered in a diagram: carōtam vs carōtas, pullum vs pullōs. 4/10

The accusative case is tricky to teach. It is usually one of the first pieces of grammar a student encounters that is radically different from English. The students at this stage are often very young and not great at processing wordy technical explanations. 1/10

I am often asked what resources I recommend to parents of young children wanting to teach Latin to their little ones. I am glad to say these picture story books are now available from the University of Dallas website k12classical.udallas.edu/shop/?fbclid... (Photo by author Jessica McCormack) 1/7

Overwhelmingly more users indicate that they want to be corrected (3877) than not (77). This can be seen from the number next to the reactions (I've hidden the other reactions for privacy). That is, 98% who indicated a preference, did so to ask for corrective feedback. 2/8

In language teaching there is hot debate over whether correcting a student's use of the target language is helpful or discouraging. Here's one interesting piece of data: users of the Latin & Greek Discord can self-assign a tag to indicate if they want to be corrected or not. 1/8

I ran the poll on Twitter/X and got a decisive lead for collective wisdom over new discovery. This is why humanities teachers matter so much. It's not just the researchers making groundbreaking work that keep humanity thinking, it's also your high school history teacher and her novelist friend.

A diagram from a dictionary of how time of the day and night is conceptualised in classical Roman times. The day is divided into 12 equal hours, starting with the first hour, while the night is in four watches. (Image credit to Taiara Peter, Learning Latin Facebook group.) 1/4

The colour scheme strongly reminds me of the art for the Suburani textbook series. Looking lovely!

Lupus et Agnus, 'The Wolf and the Lamb,' is the first fable in book 1 of Phaedrus. A tale of false accusations and a murderous wolf, this is the fable depicted on the project's front cover art. 2/3
