2025 Workshop Talk | | Latin, Greek & Language
Summary
Bring Latin alive through picture study, observation, and conversation! With a great work of art, a Latin dictionary (or list of vocab words), and a few simple questions, attendees will learn how to develop the habit of attention in their students and engage in basic Latin conversation with them that focuses on the objective of their lesson. We will start with “Quid est in pictura?” and go from there! By the end, attendees will be equipped with questions to ask their own students and will feel confident to lead a picture study time in their classroom.
Speaker
Nicole Henry has been a passionate classical educator for over 25 years, specializing in the humanities. She has taught across the curriculum and at all age levels in various settings, including classical schools, university model programs, and homeschool co-ops. For over a decade, she homeschooled her four children, instilling (she hopes!) a love of learning and cultivating a deep appreciation for the classical tradition. For the past three years, Nicole has served as the logic school Latin teacher at Providence Classical School in Spring, TX, exploring ways to make this ancient, beautiful language come alive for her students. She holds both a BA and an MA in theological studies, which have enriched her teaching and writing. As the co-founder of Invictus Classical Press, she is dedicated to crafting high-quality, classical and Charlotte Mason-inspired resources that inspire students and support educators. When she’s not teaching, reading, or writing, Nicole enjoys nurturing plants, marveling at bugs and fungi, and drinking coffee. Above all, she delights in sharing her enthusiasm for teaching and learning with others.
