After song school latin?

post #1 of 4

What do you recommend as a follow up after Song School Latin? We are nearly finished and I'd like to keep the momentum going.
Thanks

What age is your dc/are your dc? We did SSL last year with a 3rd grader, 1st grader and young PreKer. This year my now 4th grader and 2nd grader are doing Latin for Children A and are enjoying it. Ds#3 (an older PreKer working often at a K level) is learning the chants with us. If your dc is/are younger, you may want to look into Getting Started with Latin (on my list to do with the boys just as reinforcement), Minimus (though in my opinion better as a supplement and the teacher's manual is quite expensive; we love reading through it though as it helps reinforce what we are learning in LfC), or something like Prima Latina, which is designed for K-3rd, if I remember correctly (though it is religious in nature and that makes a difference for some).

If my children were not yet old enough for LfC A (basically if ds#1 was 2nd/3rd grade and ds#2 was K/1st grade), I would have done Getting Started with Latin along with Minimus (and maybe considered Prima Latina though we are not religious), but mine were the perfect age to start Latin for Children A. Hope that all helps a bit.

I'm using Latin for Children A with my 9yo and 7yo this year. We used Prima Latina last year and the kids and I both like this better.
