Publisher's Description of First Form Latin DVD Second Edition
The First Form Latin Instructional DVDs (3 discs, 9 hours, 15-20 minutes/lesson) features superb explanations by Highlands Latin School teacher Jessica Watson. Her First Form Latin Instructional DVDs include helpful on-screen notes, illustrations, diagrams, recitations,and more!
Written by Cheryl Lowe (author of the best-selling Latina Christiana), First Form and its sister Latin products have been used by more than 100,000 students across the world to learn Latin! First Form's grammar-first approach focuses on grammar forms and vocabulary because these are the skills suitable for the grammar stage student. All beginners regardless of ageare in the grammar stage of learning. Syntax (how to use the grammar) and translation are logic and rhetoric stage skills, respectively, and quickly overwhelm the student unless introduced at a slow, gentle pace and taught for mastery.First Form is the ideal text for all beginners, grades 5 & up, or is a great follow-up to Latina Christiana at any age. Now every school and homeschool can have a truly successful Latin program that creates Latin scholars instead of Latin drop-outs.
Based on twenty years of teaching experience, this revolutionary "grammar-first" series will be your guide as you and your students successfully climb the mountain of Latin Grammar all the way to the top! The uniqueness of the First Form Series lies in two features: (1) Commitment to the trivium model of teaching grammar systematically in order to facilitate retention and understanding, rather than topically, to facilitate translation; and (2) Extensive workbook exercises to ensure skills mastery and rapid recognition of inflected forms.
After finishing First Form ,the student will have mastered:
- The six indicative active tenses of the first two verb conjugations
- Five noun declensions
- First and second declension adjectives
- 185 vocabulary words

Why did you choose this?
I have struggled teaching latin in the past, so I wanted some help with the instruction
I have not studied Latin and my oldest is quickly moving beyond my depth. I needed something that would provide her the instruction that I cannot.
