Teaching Wheelock's Latin

The seventh edition of Wheelock's Latin, published in 2011, features a great many revisions intended to make this classic textbook even more effective, more interesting, and more user friendly for both teachers and learners. Following is an overview of the changes:

?The text was entirely rekeyed, providing the opportunity for formatting and design changes that help clarify each CAPVT's organization and, along with new photographs and drawings, make the book more visually appealing.

?SMALL BOLD CAPITALS are employed to call attention to important new grammatical and other technical terms.

?To encourage more active use of the language in the classroom, Latin is employed in the CAPVT titles and for section heads (Exercitationes instead of "Practice and Review," Vocabula for "Vocabulary," etc.).

?Material in the footnotes has either been incorporated into the text or deleted. ?The maps have been updated, and more frequent references appear in the text to

encourage their use. ?Significant revisions have been made in each CAPVT's grammar discussion section

(newly titled Grammatica), including systematic introduction and definition of all parts of speech, earlier introduction of verb synopsis, and clarification of numerous grammatical points. ?The CAPVT Vocabula have been revised in several ways, including spelling out full nominatives for all adjectives, genitives for all nouns, and principal parts for all verbs, even regular first conjugation verbs?thus eliminating abbreviations potentially distracting to students trying to learn new vocabulary items for the first time. Each list is preceded by a brief discussion of new or exceptional types of words that will be encountered, as well as general suggestions on how to master vocabulary. ?Similarly, each CAPVT's Lectiones et Translationes ("Readings and Translations") section opens with a variety of tips aimed at building reading and translating skills.
