 An idea about learning the Vocabulary (as inspired by one of my students)

 Activity - Latine Cano

 Activity - Ex Libris
Students are designing their own "ex libris" stickers for their books. The document has a collection of designs by some of my students. 

 Activity - Coins of Julius Caesar and Augustus
You can choose a main topic (e.g. coins) and you can create a lap-poster for your class. Students absolutely love this poster and they are very engaged with the topic of the poster.

 Activity - Moretum
You can prepare a genuine Latin recipe with your students during lesson time! The ingredients are very simple, low-budget and the final outcome really delicious. There is a Latin and English version of the recipe with a vocabulary list.  

 Activity - Latin Advent Calendar
Help your students learn or refresh the numbers in Latin during December.

L' Infinito 2.00


It was 200 years ago that the great Italian poet Giacomo Leopardi (1798-1837) wrote “L’ Infinito", one of the most beautiful poems of the world. Now, Mario Camilletti, an Italian teacher and musician, composed and played in his own song with the famous lyrics by Leopardi. An original way to learn and memorize this extraordinary poem. Listen to “L’ Infinito 2.00''.

  

Latine Cano


LATINE CANO is a very different way to meet classical poetry. The composer, Mario Camilletti, teacher in an italian Secondary High school and musician, is truly convinced that the classical poetry was sung, not declaimed.
To convince his students that Latin is the basis of our culture, he began to sing Latin poems in the way of modern pop music. With the music, you can hear and learn Latin classical poetry at the same time.
You can try to sing some of the famous great poems by Horace, Catullus, Virgil, while keeping the latin metric, and meeting the classical in a funny but unforgettable way.
Based on the Professor Camilletti’s experience, Latine Cano will show you how the Latin lirycs are new and adaptable also to modern pop music.

Tracks:
Odi et amo (Catullus, Liber, c. 85)
Carpe diem (Horace, Odi, I, 11)
Fetontes (Ovid, Metamorphoseon, II, vv. 304-318)
Sicelides Musae (Virgil, Boucolica, Ecl. IV)
