Every Latin exercise should be carefully pronounced by the pupils.
Groups of words in common phrases should be committed to memory and frequently recited, and brief passages in Latin prose should be learned by the pupils.
No word should be accepted as correctly written unless every syllable long by nature has its mark of quantity.
Constant attention should be called to related words.
The word lists should be made in each case a separate lesson and used for emphasizing suggestion, as well as for drill in remembering words.
"Vocabulary and form" should be made a daily watchword, and frequent attention should be called to the terminal parts of inflected words as showing their relation to others.
Rapid oral work should be demanded in translating from Latin into English and from English into Latin.
Easy sight sentences and dictation exercises in Latin may very profitably be given to the pupil.
No pupil should be allowed in translating to violate in the slightest degree the purity of the English idiom.
Stories of Roman life should be told in the class and the pupils encouraged in every way to learn more of the people whose language they are studying; Caesar, Cicero, Pompey, and other eminent Romans should be made living personalities to them.
Some ideas of the house and of the home life of the Romans should be given to the pupils.
The Roman arms, armor, and utensils should be described and, as far as possible, shown in pictures and models. The illustrations in this book could be made the basis of profitable study along these lines.
