- Latin-4th Grade—Q3W4
- Homework
- Dear 4th Grade Parents,
- As an inflected language, Latin uses word endings to change meaning. For example, am-o is I love, but ama-s is you love.
- To add the endings, the student first needs to find the stem, the common element in all the forms of the word.
- The Chapter 4 Quiz assessed students’ mastery of the process of finding the stems of 1st Declension nouns.
- To maintain this skill, they will be practicing it in the homework.
- Further, they will be using those stems to practice the beginning steps of adding the endings.
- The formal name of this process is declining or declension. The chants needed for the process are named like this: D(eclension) 1, D2, D3, etc.
- Notes:
- In section A, students are required to cross off the words in the word bank, to help ensure that students are basing their translation in the word bank.
- Please note that Section C, like Section B, is a daily excercise, and will require erasing

About me
Hello,
My name is Mr. Grimm,
And I’m looking forward to working with your children in 3rd, 4th, and 5th Grade Latin.
I am a graduate of Thomas Aquinas College, with an M.A. Philosophy from the Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology in Berkeley, CA. I have studied Latin in high school, college, and graduate school, and taught it before coming to Great Hearts. This is my second year teaching Latin at Archway Lincoln. Before that, I was a TA for 3rd Grade at Archway Cicero.
Looking forward to meeting you all!
I can be reached at my email, dgrimm@archwaylincoln.org.
My tutoring hours are Friday 7:30 to 8:00 am and Thursday, 3:45 to 4:15 pm. Tutoring is by invitation.
