Latin I First Semester Reflection

I had the high school Latin I students write about their experiences in the first semester of Latin.  I asked several questions and here are a few of the topics and their responses:

Biggest Challenges in Learning Latin
the cases and numbers of nouns
the conjugations of verbs
retaining the vocabulary
words changing their forms as their use changed

What They Could Do to Become a Better Latin Student
study the extra credit flash cards that they make for the vocabulary test
FOCUS
refresh their knowledge on a regular basis
be more proactive when struggling
tutorials
not wait until the last minute

What They Would Like to See From Me as Their Teacher
more time going over notes
more practice Quizlets to practice their new learning but also to intensify their knowledge and understanding of the language
more optional practices/assignments/assessments in the Google Classroom

Latin I Goals for the New Semester
read and understand Latin fluently
say simple Latin sentences
retain information
