And yes, the incident described in Neale's carol about Wenceslas is likely made up, but from what we know of the man it is typical, and could well have happened.<br /><br />If you enjoy learning about the history of our traditional hymns and their authors, I invite you to check out my daily blog on the subject, <i>Wordwise Hymns</i>. I know a number of home schoolers use it for teaching on this subject in their curriculum.roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435373461292769832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5833151560508481939.post-29822735581177493892008-12-11T04:14:00.000-05:002008-12-11T04:14:00.000-05:00I am love this great site.

We completed Latina Christiana I last year with my 3rd and 5th grade, and I can totally see how it's helped with their ability to decipher words. <BR/><BR/>In opening the LCII curriculum this school year, I was a little…a LOT intimidated by the translation of Latin throughout the curriculum, so I have yet to start it with the kids this year as I think it will be too overwhelming. <BR/><BR/>Nancymc's comment has clarified things for me. I think I might go ahead and use the program, but skip those parts (such as some of the translating, etc.) that I don't feel are directly useful for us. I think I might also stretch it out for 2 years as well. <BR/><BR/>I still believe that the study of Latin is very beneficial, but don't want to teach every single aspect of Latin "just because". I want to teach it with a purpose.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for this wonderful post.<BR/><BR/>Joy @ Five J'sAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
