New Steps in Latin is a three book series designed specifically for
middle or high school students. The texts employ a minimum of
explanation of grammatical principles, concentrate on essential
grammar and morphology and on the syntax of simple, compound, and
complex sentences. The focus on learning is through numerous
examples. The series offers students a complete graded introduction
to Latin and grammar. It can be used alone, as a main text
supplemented by readings and cultural material, or as a
supplementary grammatical work text for a reading-oriented course.
Each book consists of 30 lessons intended for a year-long course
in Latin. Taken together, the three books form a complete course
for grades 7-9 or 6-8. Vocabulary in the series is based on Cicero,
Vergil, Ovid, and Pliny. After completing New Steps in Latin,
students will be ready to read these or other unaltered Latin
authors.
New First Steps (grade 6 or 7): conjugations 1-4, active and
passive voice; declensions 1-5; simple sentences.
New Second Steps (grade 7 or 8): participles, infinitives,
relative clauses, indirect statement; complex sentences; connected
reading.
New Third Steps (grade 8 or 9): uses of the subjunctive, gerund
and gerundive; excerpts from Caesar, Bellum Gallicum.
