Enhanced by colour artwork and text features, the book supports the new OCR specification for Latin (first teaching 2016) as well as meeting the needs of later students, both at university and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten by two experienced school teachers, one also an examiner, the course is based on a keen understanding of what pupils find difficult. It concentrates on the essentials and provides explanations of principles in both accidence and syntax, postponing and subordinating minor irregularities to reduce the need for rote learning. User-friendly, it also offers pupils a firm foundation for further study.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePart 1 covers the basics and is self-contained, with its own reference section. It outlines the main declensions, a range of active tenses, and a vocabulary of 275 Latin words to be learned. Pupil confidence is built up by constant consolidation of the material covered. After the preliminaries, each chapter concentrates on stories with one source or subject: the Fall of Troy, the journeys of Aeneas, the founding of Rome, and the early kings, providing an excellent introduction to Roman culture alongside the language study.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46841003147500,"sku":"9781780934402","price":32.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/2044643482822.jpg?v=1758704967","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/latin-to-gcse-part-1-by-henry-cullen-9781780934402","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
