Task 1. Pre-reading derivatives in Google Classroom.  Use the dictionaries linked in Google Classroom to this assignment. 

Task 2. Practice Vocabulary with Quizlet.

Task 3. Questions on Readings from As The Romans Did. For questions go to Quia. This is an "open book" assignment, so you can use the text in Google Classroom to answer the questions in Quia.

Task 4. Read the Latin and English of Martial's poems dedicated to Scorpus,  a charioteer who died young. Then answer the questions. Find texts and questions in Google Classroom.

Task 5. As a group work through the translation of Story 27 in Quizlet. Do not look at the translation until you as a group have tried to work out the Latin. Take turns reading and leading the translation of the Latin sentences in Quizlet.  Take notes. I will be looking in your notebook for questions and observations about this text. The grammar for this chapter focuses mostly on pronouns. So you should also focus on pronouns in the reading. YOU DON'T HAVE TO FINISH this assignment on Monday. It is better to go slowly rather than rapidly through the translation process.
