Buy them new or find used copies thru the link below.
The Kindle is amazing! You can download new or very old books--many of these are free--including books in Latin. I'm amazed at what it can do. It downloads books from anywhere (as long as there is cell phone coverage) and it even allows you to download samples of the books free. You can search google books or wikipedia and there are no connection fees... You only pay a fee if you purchase the complete book.

MORE DETAILS
What Concepts of Latin Grammar Are Covered?
Click below to see the Table of Contents and get an idea of what we will be covering. The Summer Course will be divided into 2 parts, since there are many people who need just the first few chapters, or others who need help with just the more advanced concepts of pronouns and 3rd/4th conjugation.

FEATURES of the ONLINE MLC
With the following features, it solves many of the problems we have with a F2F (face to face) classroom:
1- You can come in your nightgown! Or gym shorts--or whatever!
2- Each student can set the thermostat just the way they like it.
3- The whiteboard is easily viewable from every seat, and students can also "write on the board." You can also view any file, picture, or website I have on my desktop.
4- The sessions are recorded, so that if someone misses they can review it!
5- Everyone has a chance to discuss or ask questions through a mic or type in chat box (if you don't have a mic) during discussion time.
6- And--last but not least! It doesn't require a car or the purchase of ANY gasoline!
HOMEWORK
You will get feedback on your homework via EMAIL!
It will be due between the Online Sessions. Assignments should be sent to me via email and I will grade them as quickly as I can and send it back to you, with explanatory notes if needed. I usually get them back within 24 hours.
LATIN CONCEPTS COVERED are found in the first 10 chapters (and some of Chs 11& 12) of Wheelock's Latin (see link to book above).
The goal is to master the foundational concepts found in the first few chapters of Wheelock's along with getting an overview of how all Latin verbs and nouns work. This course prepares you well to teach Introductory Latin to your young home schoolers.
About my experience: I have been
teaching Latin for over 10 years, in two schools
and in homeschool study
centers. My three sons have been studying Latin in
homeschooling during part of that time,
too. At home and in all the various tutoring
situations, I've used just about any curriculum you can name!
Henle, Wheelocks, Memoria Press, Canon Press, Latin for
Children, and more! My BA degree is in English
and I studied Latin for a year at UNCC (and
then on my own for several years
thereafter).
