LATINAt Classical Academic Press we do not merely create instructional textbooks, we create complete sets of learning tools designed to make teaching and learning both accessible and delightful. For each subject we start with a core text: the student book. We then provide several support materials to give all the aid that a teacher or student could need to feel confident as they master the subject together. These products are all listed below so that you can see a complete view of the entire curriculum. In addition, we created an entire website, HeadventureLand.com, which offers free educational games, videos, and ebooks where students can practice the subject they are learning.
The Student Text: filled with the lessons and exercises that are the student’s primary contact with the material.
The Answer Key: includes actual full-size worksheets from the student text. Don’t reinvent the wheel, get the answers to quizzes, exercises and worksheets in large bold print.
The DVD & CD Set: we have bodies for a reason and we should take advantage of them in the learning process—the visual and audio component of our curricula is a tremendous application of this truth. Watch teachers and students interact, learn from the best tutors, and imprint the material with engaging visuals. Using the intelligence of your ear and eye will make learning vocabulary and other course content natural. Support your student’s understanding of the subject material and give yourself time in the week for other children, planning, and other daily responsibilities.
Activity Books: contain over 100 puzzles and games that follow chapter-by-chapter with the student text to help the students practice vocabulary and grammar.
History Readers: show students that they can use their newfound knowledge to read. Translation is an incredibly empowering experience for language learners. The readers are keyed to the grammar and vocabulary of the Latin for Children series and correspond to the Veritas Press History card series. They are also an excellent supplementary text for students using other Latin curricula.
Clashcards: these bright cards are not only straight flashcards, but also games that you can play! Who said that rigorous learning isn’t fun?
Test Packet: Often requested by customers, this set of comprehensive tests to supplement the student book is an excellent and helpful resource! The downloadable packet includes weekly chapter tests, unit tests, and even unit study guides. A complete answer key for the tests is included.
Latin Everywhere: Make Latin a consistent and fun part of your life! Have a visual learner for a Latin student? The Latin Word Quest Poster features a translation exercise of all the Latin for Children, Primer A vocabulary words to match with fun corresponding images. Have a wordsmith? Try the Latin Crosswords Book (which includes all the vocabulary in Latin for Children Primers A, B, and C!) and you will learn and practice over 1500 words! For the car and home, the Veni Emmanuel CD is a collection of hauntingly beautiful Latin carols, and includes a 16-page booklet of full Latin lyrics along with literal and poetic English translations. Hours of Latin fun!

Introduction to Parents & Teachers
This book was intended as an learing-aid to stu-dents studying Latin from the Latin for Children: Primer A textbook. It follows that text book chap-ter for chapter. The words learned on chapter three
of the text book correlate to those in chapter three of this activity book (but might also contain words and concepts learned from previous chapters as review).
Not all puzzles will appeal to all students. Feel free to have students do all the puzzles, attempt a challenging puzzle only to return to it later, or with your permission, skip some entirely. Our goal is not to stump the students with impossible puzzles, rather, with a reasonable sense of challenge, have students continue practicing their Latin in a setting of fun, games and playfulness.
A few ideas...
• Use highlighters for the word search puzzles. This will help minimize the muddle of circles.
• Use colored pencils on the matching games to delineate one line from another.
• Encourage students to work together (when available) on some of the more challenging puzzles.
• Have students create their own puzzles and games.
NOTE: This section is NOT in-
tended to exclude students, small
dogs or pet goldfish (except those
fish named, “Fred”). It’s merely
that it contains some of that boring
“grown-up” stuff that you might
find on a federal tax form or on the
lower left column on page 14 of your
stereo instructions.
NOTE:All nouns featured in the puzzles will
be singular and nominative unless
otherwise specified (the first form listed
in the LFC Primer vocabulary lists).
Adjectives featured in these puzzles will be masculine, singular,
nominative unless otherwise specified
(the first form listed in the LFC Primer vocabulary lists).

Latin!Latin is a rich, ancient language, and is still very much alive in the modern languages
that we speak today. It plays a vital role training students in grammar, in categorical thinking about how a language works, in logical reasoning, and greatly expands a
student’s English vocabulary. Caveat emptor (let the buyer beware), these programs have made Latin the favorite subject of many students around the nation!
Spanish!After English, Spanish is arguably the most easily applied second language for North American students to learn and master. Classical Academic Press’s Spanish curricula are a blend of immersion and grammar-based study. We start with songs and vocabulary and go on to teach Spanish grammar for conversation—from its parts to its whole—so that students will know how to make sentences as well as recognize them by ear.
Greek!Greek is one of the mother tongues of the English language, with many English words having been derived from Greek. Greek is also a perfectly orderly language, ideal to help us understand the structure of any language. Koine Greek, which is the focus in our texts, is also the history-rich language of the New Testament.
Logic!There are several branches of logic, and our three levels of curriculum focus on teaching informal and formal logic, as well as supplying students with the tools to create their own logical arguments. Each logic text recognizes that students are living in the 21st century and applies logical concepts to real-life, and often humorous, examples. Mastery of logic is a requisite skill for critical thinking in any discipline and for the classical learning education.
Bible!If you would like to teach your students the narrative arc of the Bible and show them how God has been at work in His people since before creation, you will find God’s Great Covenant to be a unique and excellent Bible curriculum. Taught from a covenantal and reformed theological perspective, and rooted in Scripture, you will find this series to be a blessing to your classroom, Sunday School, or family.
Poetry!If you have ever felt mystified by poetry, this book will lead you step-by-step to an understanding and love of this branch of literature, guided by a gifted poet and teacher. This accessible curriculum demystifies the practice of reading a poem slowly and carefully, introduces students to the elements of poetry (such as imagery and metaphor), and highlights the historical forms that poems have taken (such as sonnet and open verse). Learn how absorbing the best words in the best order changes your relationship to ideas.
