This curriculum has made an older more difficult language alive and engaging to my young kids. I had never learned another language myself so I was terrified to teach one but this has made it sooo easy!!

I highly recommend Song School Latin! I do have to say my son is excited to study Latin, and my thanks goes to Song School Latin for this enthusiasm! We are now studying Song School Latin II, and his smiling face is all the proof I need that this program is tearless, painless, and FUN! The only thing missing from this bundle is a stuffed Simian! We have purchased many other books from Classic Academic Press, and have had no complaints. On a whole they are an outstanding company that has a loyal customer for life.

I would have originally said the CD was a disappointment, the musical quality isn't the best...but since ALL THREE of my kids (ages 2,5,6) ask for it and even the two year old can sing all of the songs...I guess I will change my mind! We watch the short DVD segment on Mondays, listen to the CD in the car a couple times a week, and my first grader fills out the workbook. I can't imagine an easier way to get in some great Latin vocabulary.

Sing along to these fun songs and learn tons of everyday Latin vocabulary. We keep the cds in our van, we watch the dvds weekly and the review workbooks are easy for lower elementary students to use and practice all the new cool words they've learned. My youngest kids love the My Pet Monkey adventures and The Derivative River. I highly recommend this product.

Song School Latin is a great introduction to Latin for early grades. The lessons cover mainly vocabulary, with a short Latin phrase each week. The lessons were short and easy to follow. My children loved the My Pet Monkey DVD segments, but sometimes lost interest in the instructional portion of the DVD. That said, we used a different Latin program prior to discovering Classical Academic Press, and in terms of Latin Instructional DVDS, Classical Academic Press's are the most engaging I've seen.
