Latin II Project “My Noun Book”

Project: Put together a small book of noun/adjective pairings with illustrations facing.

There will be a pair of pages for each of the five noun declensions and an adjective paired with it. The adjectives will one from 1st & 2nd declension, one from 3rd declension, one comparative adjective, one participle (student’s choice of tense), and one other modifier of the students choice.

100% All forms are correct, the work is neat, the illustrations are not computer generated nor is there any clipart, and there is an imaginative, unifying theme. The student’s work will demonstrate an understanding of what has been assigned.

90% Forms are mostly correct but with a few mistakes, the handwriting and artwork show an attempt at neatness of design. There is a unifying theme. The student clearly understands the assignment.

80% There will be more errors here, possibly mistaken declensions as well as endings, less of an attempt at design.

70% The project will be messier and possibly less than complete, but complete enough for some credit.

50% The project is very incomplete in concept and execution.

0% Project not turned in or too closely identical with that of other students.

DO NOT use the paradigm nouns in your text or Wheelock, except for 5th declension, which is more or less a “freebie.”
