Today we come to the present indicative passive verbs. These are verbs in which the subject receives the action. The person or thing doing the action is put in the ablative case.
Our normal routine is for all of us to chant the noun and verb endings and memorize any new endings. Then the little ones drop out, and the older ones and I read the lesson together.We watch the video together. Then we get out our charts and vocabulary lists and translate together. Since I am learning Latin along with them, the only way I have to verify that we are correct is to refer to the charts. Then we translate, inflecting all the words. Then everyone reviews the vocabulary on quizlet.
This takes time, so take the time it takes.

Flashcards: flashcards on quizlet These are flashcards I made up to go along with the book. The cards are numbered according to the section of the book to which that they correspond. You can print the vocabulary in a variety of forms (sheet, cards, table, etc) to help with review and translation.
Interactive Grammar Tables You can practice declining and conjugating online, and know whether or not you are correct.
The following charts have all the declensions and conjugations covered so far in a compact chart. Very helpful in inflecting the vocabulary.
