<span style="color: #ff0000">Due Monday 3 / 22:  11b. in textbook</span>

<span style="color: #ff0000">WEEK OF 3/15:  We started chapter 11, and looked at possession using short phrases like <em>Cassandra's book / liber Cassandrae. </em>  Latin uses an ending to show possession.  On Friday, we played a game which requires students to think about prefixes on English words.  I will soon have the big vocabulary list on the blog. <em>NEW NOTE:  I won't put this on the blog.  It is too difficult.  I will try another way of disseminating this information.  </em></span>

<span style="color: #ff0000">Week of 3/ 22:  We went over the chapter 11 story in class and reviewed possession.  On Wednesday we looked at common Latin abbreviations which are used in English, such as 'i.e.' and 'etc.'  We also mentioned the La businesses in Hyde Park that use Latin: 'Canis Sapiens,' (dog training school); 'Edo ergo sum,' (Medici t-shirt); 'Toys Et Cetera' (self-explanatory!)  We also mentioned cars with Latin names or roots:  Volvo, Mercedes, Oldsmobile, and Audi.  </span>
