When you have finished Responde Latine and pre-reading derivatives, do internet research on Apicius, who wrote an ancient Roman cookbook. 

What were common meals?  It is hard to cook using Apicius' book alone, because s/he did not give measurements. 

Browse the other articles that come up when you google Apicius. Take notes on one's you find interesting and summarize so you can recommend them to other students.
