Salvete, omnes!
Today, in Latina Pro Vicis,
Magister Perry took his classes on an exciting field trip..... to the
grocery store! At the grocery store, we were able to practice our
conversational Latin in a real-world setting. Our interactions with
residents of Ashland along the way were especially entertaining. In Roman Art, we took a quiz on Julio-Claudian art and learned about Flavian art. Finally, in "Si se non noverit",
Magister Cavedo picked apart and analyzed the words of great Ovid in
"Echo and Narcissus". We discovered interesting word plays in our
reading of Ovid's poem.
After lunch, we had "Quaestio", a time for
studying and for asking help on homework from professors. The day
continued with play practice, memoranda, and set design.
After dinner, we all went to see Shakespeare's play, "The Comedy of
Errors", outside! Thank you to the talented Richmond Shakespeare
Organizations for hosting us.
We ended the day with lots of laughs and wide smiles! Keep reading to hear more about our exciting days at The Academy!
