In Ms. Sisk’s 8th grade Latin class, students are researching Roman history to complement their study of the language. Using a history textbook, students are researching and making a slideshow about the Roman monarchies, from Romulus to Tarquinius Superbus. Students then presented their knowledge of Roman leadership to the class in groups of 3-4 a day. By working to research the past leadership, students are learning key research and reading skills while infusing facts about the history that gives the language and culture context.
