MISSION STATEMENT FOR DEPARTMENT OF WORLD LANGUAGES
The Department of World Languages at Providence Academy invites students to explore, appreciate,
and communicate purposefully in French, Latin, Spanish, and, consequently, English. Our program
promotes listening, understanding, reading, writing, and speaking. We also teach historical,
geographic, and cultural aspects of these languages, challenging students to grow in their faith, sense
of global community, and service to others. Students from kindergarten through grade five explore
Spanish and French language and society; grades six and seven study Latin to build linguistic skills,
grammar, and vocabulary; eighth graders through seniors may seek proficiency via five years of
development in their chosen language.
Course Overview:
 Students will continue their study of Latin grammar while increasing their overall
language abilities greatly. Grammar includes active and passive voice, subjunctive
mood, all forms of infinitives and participles, and various subordinate clauses. Projects
in Roman culture and civilization focus upon Republican Rome in the final one hundred
and fifty years before Christ.
Additional Course Information:
 Required: C- or above in Latin I or Grade 7 Latin at Providence Academy.
 Approximately one chapter is covered every 2 weeks.
Text, Readings, Materials:
 Wheelock’s Latin, Frederick M. Wheelock, Rev. Richard A. LaFleur, 6th Edition,
HarperCollins, 2000.

Course Policies:
 Uphold Providence Academy’s Code of Conduct: This includes, but is not limited to,
academic honesty and uniform compliance.
 Be on Time, Prepared, Be Respectful, and Participate.
 Participate. This includes, but is not limited to, being on time, being prepared, and being
respectful. It also means being involved in all classroom assignments and activities and
asking for help when you need it! Participation will not be tracked specifically. Rather,
at the end of the quarter your participation may impact your calculated grade being raised
a “plus” mark, lowered a “minus” mark, or remaining the same. In some cases a

student’s extra effort may be recognized here and be used to raise a grade beyond just a
“plus.”
Homework. Students are responsible for turning all assignments in on time. Unexcused
late assignments are recorded with zero credit until turned in and are not eligible for full
credit. If you are absent the day an assignment is due, it will be due on your return. You
are also responsible for missed assignments due to absences.
Attendance: It is your responsibility to find out what you have missed when you are
absent. This includes copying any notes taken in class on the day you are absent. If your
absence is unexcused, you will receive a 0 for any work assigned that day. If you are
absent the day before a test or quiz that has been previously announced, you will be
expected to take the test or quiz if you return on the scheduled day. If you are absent on
the day of a test or quiz, you will need to schedule time with me to make it up.

o Tests: Objective with Translation portion, roughly 50% of the grade
o Vocabulary Tests: roughly 20% of the grade
o Homework and quizzes: roughly 15% of the grade

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum:
nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat
benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus

fructus ventris tui, Jesus.
nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis

Accipe memoriam, intellectum atque voluntatem
omnem. Quidquid habeo vel possideo mihi largitus

trado gubernandum. Amorem tui solum cum gratia
tua mihi dones, et dives sum satis, nec aliud
quidquam ultra posco. Amen

Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem,
Creatorem caeli et terrae. Et in Iesum
Christum, Filium eius unicum, Dominum
nostrum, qui conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto,
natus ex Maria Virgine, passus sub Pontio
Pilato, crucifixus, mortuus, et sepultus,
descendit ad inferos, tertia die resurrexit a
mortuis, ascendit ad caelos, sedet ad dexteram
Dei Patris omnipotentis, inde venturus est
iudicare vivos et mortuos. Credo in Spiritum
Sanctum, sanctam Ecclesiam catholicam,
sanctorum communionem, remissionem
peccatorum, carnis resurrectionem, vitam
aeternam. Amen.

Anima Christi, sanctifica me.
Corpus Christi, salve me.
Sanguis Christi, inebria me.

O bone Iesu, exaudi me.
Intra tua vulnera absconde me.
Ne permittas me separari a te.
Ab hoste maligno defende me.
In hora mortis meæ voca me.
Et iube me venire ad te,
ut cum Sanctis tuis laudem te
in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.
Prayer of Self-dedication to Jesus
LORD Jesus Christ, take all my freedom, my
memory, my understanding, and my will. All that I
have and cherish Thou hast given me. I surrender it
all to be guided by Thy will. Thy grace and Thy
love are wealth enough for me. Give me these Lord
Jesus and I ask for nothing more. Amen.
Confiteor
Confiteor Deo omnipotenti, beatae Mariae
semper Virgini, beato Michaeli Archangelo,
beato Ioanni Baptistae, sanctis Apostolis Petro
et Paulo, et omnibus Sanctis, quia peccavi
nimis cogitatione, verbo et opere: mea culpa,
mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Ideo precor
beatam Mariam semper Virginem, beatum
Michaelem Archangelum, beatum Ioannem
Baptistam, sanctos Apostolos Petrum et
Paulum, et omnes Sanctos, orare pro me ad
Dominum Deum nostrum. Amen.
I confess to almighty God, to blessed Mary ever Virgin, to blessed
Michael the Archangel, to blessed John the Baptist, to the holy
apostles Peter and Paul, and to all the saints that I have sinned
exceedingly in thought, word, and deed, through my fault, through my
fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore, I beseech blessed
Mary ever Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, blessed John the
Baptist, the holy apostles Peter and Paul, and all the saints, to pray for
me to the Lord our God. Amen.
