Follow these steps:

Step 1: Print out all the PDF worksheets and answer keys.
Step 2: Play video #A | Lesson Title (Grammar)
Step 3: Student does worksheet #A Grammar
Step 4: Play video #B | Lesson Title (Sentences)
Step 5: Student does worksheet #B Sentences
Step 6: Play video #C | Lesson Title (Reading
Step 7: Student does worksheet #C Reading
Step 8: Check the student’s work against the answer keys. If there are any mistakes, go over that particular point with him. If he is unsure of any answers or concepts, watch the videos again with him and help explain the concept

For review, we recommend that a student watch all three sections again the following day to reinforce the material in his mind

Class Pacing Visual Latin is a self-paced class, so it can be taught as quickly or as slowly as a student or parent/teacher desires. It is generally designed for 20 lessons in a semester, or 2 lessons per week for 10 weeks. This is a moderately-slow pace that almost any student can follow. If a student would like to go more quickly, he or she can just do more lessons in a week.

*The key is ensuring that comprehension is happening!]]>
