Ms. Shirek Latin Storyboard 2
Storyboard Text
- Latin Agenda One:Introductions in Latin!
- Yeah! It looks like we're going to have to introduce ourselves...? Who can even do that in Latin?
- Hey! Did you see the board? We're starting Latin today...
- Sum Marcus. Sum benignus.
- Wait ... what?
- Latin Agenda One:Introductions in Latin!
- Um... your name isn't Marcus...?
- No, but that's how you make a guy's name in Latin, you add -us! Amira, your name already fits the pattern for girls in Latin-- it has to have an -a ending!
- Salvete omnes!
- Latin Agenda One:Introductions in Latin!
- Salvete means "hi" in Latin! Which is great, because today we're going to start working on introductions in Latin!
- Uhh...Hi Ms. Shirek...
- I can already introduce myself! Sum Marcus. Sum benignus.
- That's fantastic! You're really close, we just need to work on the word order!
- Latin Agenda One:Introductions in Latin!
- WORD ORDER??
- There needs to be a certain order? Did I at least get the words right? My sister taught me, so if it's wrong it's her fault!
- No worries! Word order in Latin is pretty easy for us! The rule you should always remember is the verb goes at the end!
- Latin Agenda One:Introductions in Latin!
- What's the verb in the sentence Marc said?
- I think that's right! My sister said it means I AM, and we learned in English that AM is a helping verb!
- Would it be SUM? He said it twice, and the other word sounds like the English word "Benign" -- that means good I think!
- You got it! You guys are already picking up on Latin, and we've barely started--you even found a cognate in benign!! Marc, can you tell us your sentence now?
- Latin Agenda One:Introductions in Latin!
- Way to go Marcus!
- Marcus sum, benignus sum!
