LLPSI: Study Guide

This site has been re-organized to help make everything, particularly the new resources I am adding, easier to find and use.  The tabs are now arranged roughly in the order you are likely to use them when studying a new lesson in LLPSI.  So, if you are following my recommendations, for each new lesson you would navigate the tabs in the following order (from left to right):

1.  LLPSI: GRAMMAR LESSONS

(30 minutes) Participate in the grammar conversation for your lesson.
(10 minutes)  Complete the grammar worksheet for your lesson.

+ LLPSI: GRAMMAR SONGS
(5 minutes) Sing the song for your lesson (if available).

+ LLPSI: GRAMMAR KEY
(5 minutes) Use the systematic grammar key to check your work on the grammar worksheet.


2.  LLPSI: CONVERSATIONS
(30 minutes) Participate in the conversation for your lesson.


3.  READING TUTORIALS
(5 minutes) Watch the reading tutorial for your lesson.
 (30 minutes) Read (and re-read) the lesson in the LLPSI text.


4.  EXERCITIA TUTORIALS
(5 minutes) Watch the exercitia tutorial.
(30 minutes) Complete the first two exercitia for the lesson.


5.  LLPSI: CONVERSATIONS
(30 minutes)  Re-read the lesson (and/or participate in the conversation again).
(20 minutes) Complete the remaining exercitia.


Each of the numbered items should take roughly one hour to complete.  On this schedule, you would complete one lesson in one school week.

For the last lesson of each chapter, the 'grammatica latina', you will need to remove the introductory grammar lesson and add Pensa A-D toward the end.  Therefore, your last week of a chapter would look like this:

1.  LLPSI: CONVERSATIONS
(30 minutes) Participate in the conversation for the grammatica latina lesson.

+  READING TUTORIALS
(5 minutes) Watch the reading tutorial for the grammatica latina lesson.
 (30 minutes) Read (and re-read) the grammatica latina lesson in the LLPSI text.


2.  EXERCITIA TUTORIALS
(5 minutes) Watch the exercitia tutorial.
(30 minutes) Complete all the exercitia for the lesson.


3. [PENSA A-C] [NO TAB]
(30-60 minutes) Complete Pensa A-C in the text.


4.  PENSUM D
 Watch the Pensum D tutorial and complete the Pensum D worksheet.

+ TRANSLATIONS
Re-read text with audio translation.  

+ LATIN - LATIN FLASH CARDS
Study flash cards.

I hope these instructions and my new resources will make your study of the Latin language more efficient and productive.
