You can teach Latin at primary school?
It 's easy to learn Latin in 8-9 years?
This is the question that you asked the Professor Roberta Magnante Trecco while preparing to write his "Flos. And the answer could be none other than ...
YES!
The author has devised a series of stories very pleasant and interesting for children of third, fourth, fifth grade of primary school. The protagonist is the Rome of the ancient Romans, in which they live, move and speak children, families, flowers, animals, gods and goddesses, objects that are animated: a fairy-tale world that becomes a special gateway to the old, pleasant way to learn a family of Latin words and grammatical elements.
The book is divided into three sections, each of which develops three units, one devoted to grammar, a cultural element, a mythology. Each unit corresponds to a story.
At the end of each story are proposed exercise of call in the form of games are always different, which is forcing children to participate actively because they are asked not to repeat, but to recognize, find, put together, add, compare.
The pleasure of the text lies in the richness and variety of situations, which are in perfect balance between past and present.

An early familiarity with aspects of Roman culture can not only facilitate the acquisition of the size of the past, as well as the acquisition of Latin terms and structures. Flos is a book to read not only in school but also at home, because it teaches us to be curious, to love learning, as well as convey other important values.
