Abstract

This guide is for Latin teachers either taking student to Rome or simply teaching about Latin inscriptions in the classroom. It describes and translates ten different Latin inscriptions from the Roman Forum, the Protestant Cemetery, and ancient Ostia. It also gives examples of grammar topics found in each inscription that teachers can use to teach students at every level. The grammar for each level is based off the National Latin Exam standards as updated in 2014.
