Set Text Companions for AS and A2 OCR Latin & Classics

Original translation and detailed commentary – including notes on style, grammar and context, picking up where the set text notes end. Give it to students either as a complete companion, or as handouts to support your class teaching. The perfect complement to the set text!

  • Well-informed notes set the Latin text in its social, historical and literary context
  • Discussion of literary techniques
  • Activities and/or exam-style questions help students engage with and develop their own personal response to the text
  • Glossary of linguistic terms

  • Specifically designed to support students in areas identified for improvement in examiners' reports.
  • Written in student-friendly language
  • Written by an experienced examiner

These are exactly the kind of clear notes I wanted.
Seeing this resource has inspired me to continue with Latin to A Level.
