This booklet was made for my students who are sitting the Latin GCSE in Summer 2023 and 2024, covering excerpts from Aeneid Book 6.
The student booklet gives background information and context on Virgil’s life, an Aeneid plot overview and information about the Sibyl and Underworld. It then features the lines of Latin text spaced widely apart for students to add their own notes and separated into manageable chunks for memorisation. Each set of lines is also accompanied by a vocabulary table for words which students do not already know from their GCSE vocabulary list, or which they cannot be expected to guess. I have also included a translation of the lines from Book 6 which are not included in the examined text, so that students do not miss out on the full storyline.
The second document is a teacher translation, which gives a more literal translation of the lines than offered by most texts. This can be used either independently by the teacher to prep for the lessons, or to guide students through their own translations.
I always use booklets like this to teach the Literature aspect of the GCSE course, as it allows the students to engage with the text more directly by writing their own vocabulary and notes directly onto the lines.
