Coronae Exercitus Romani

After learning about the crowns awarded by Roman army generals to their soldiers, students in Latin III-V set goals for themselves to reach, which would be awarded at the end of each quarter.  These awards ranged from the corona aurelia (golden crown), awarded to the student with the highest marks for the quarter, to the corona muralis (wall crown), awarded to the student making the most significant connections between Latin and life outside the Latin classroom. 

1st Block Latin IV-V students pose in their coronae, next to a poster they drew illustrating their quarter goals.  Pictured (L-R): Iulianna (corona civica), Amelia (corona navalis) et Nausica (corona aurelia).

Not pictured (3rd Block Latin III-IV): Nero (Brendon, corona aurelia), Anna (Ann Audrey, corona navalis), Ionathan Kaleb (Maryam, corona obsidionalis).

Congratulor vobis!
