Latin Exercise

I have already checked and recorded your grades for the first quiz on declensions and prepositions. You need to STUDY HARDER because the next lessons would be harder. How can one understand the complex sentences if one cannot excel in the most basic declensions and prepositions? Remember that I have provided you with vocabulary words and the scope of the quiz, yet there are those whose grades are NOT satisfactory. Please STUDY HARDER.  

FOR JULY 25, students with a grade between 9 and 14 over 25 items will be STAYING to answer the same questions as an EXERCISE. It is OPEN NOTES!

_________________________________

Before our class period, go to the office and you will find three brown envelopes: one for those who attained a grade between 19-22; another for 15-18; and another for 9-14.

Pick one folder and browse your test paper. If it is not in that envelope, please look for it in the two other envelopes. 

READ the instructions outside the envelope.

SIGN your name for attendance and provide us with your e-mail. 

IF YOUR GRADE IS BETWEEN 9-14, you need to take the exercise again and submit to the office before 12 noon. If your grade is between 15-22, read the instructions and see you next meeting. 

NOTE BOOK

May I request all students to procure a small notebook, about thesize of a 1/4 sheet of paper? We'll use it for our exercises in Latin.
