Am I too late? I bought Prima Latina last year & never used it, are my guys too old for it now? They are 2nd & 4th grades.

Also, is there a schedule somewhere? I have all of the workbooks, cds & dvds. What is the best way to work it so that it actually gets done?

Thanks,
Angela

You should be fine, it's intended for K-3. Look in your TG for lesson plans, and do it every day. You can follow with LC1 next year, or if you go through PL at a faster pace you could start LC1 this year after completing PL :) HTH

If you have already bought it, by all means use it! I used it last year for dd7 and it is making Latina Christiana so much easier. Latina Christiana might be too much for the 2nd grader so start with PL to keep them together. We watch a video on Monday, one worksheet on Tuesday, vocab review on Wednesday, the other worksheet on Thursday, and listen to the CD whenever we are in the car. I would definitely add some copywork for the fourth grader, maybe tie it into cursive. :D

Yep. You should be fine. My girls were grades 2 and 4 last year and they did great with it.

We start with the DVD first ,then do the exercises , then drill , and drill and drill , then move on to the next lesson :>) Pretty much how Michele B does it:>)

I agree. It may just go faster with the older one.
