I'm realizing that I need a lot of hand holding for Latin. Languages in the past have been very difficult to me and I'm not so sure how to teach them. I would like a DVD teacher to be a master teacher for me and my kids so we can both learn Latin together. This would be for 3rd grade.

Don't know who she is yet, but she's alive. We're on the "waiting children" list so she'll have some medical problem when she arrives. We should know this winter who she is and then just wait for travel permission. We can't wait to meet her!

Latin Christiana and Latin for Children both have dvd's. I can't compare them becasue I have only use LfC but we really liked it and I was able to learn a ton.

and have all been happy with them. I had no Latin background so its nice to sit on the couch and learn right along with them. Mrs Leigh is very thorough, the pace can be a bit slow at times, but I'd prefer it a bit on the slow side than too fast. DDs are 10 and 8, and 6 yo listens along too.

We bought the LFC Primer A Bundle and my dd enjoys it much , much more than she did Prima Latina. I just can't tell you how much more excited she is about learning Latin this year. It is her favorite subject because of the DVD instruction , the sequence and all of the fun activities.
Blessings,

Beth,
Our youngest daughter was considered SN also. If you look closely on the pic of her stapling paper on my blog, you can see that she does not have fingers on her right hand.
Because of that SN, the adoption only took 6 months start-to-finish. We are so thankful for those missing digits!
