3/9: a Roman coin

I used the history of a Roman coin and its imagery as a way to organize my beginning Latin lesson today. It was fun to create examples of the day's grammar with the coin as my touchstone. And the students got to pass the coin around and hold in their hands a bit of money from the 1st c. BCE. Not bad for a Friday.

A Robin showed up today and yesterday I saw the Stellar's Jays packing nesting material. I still have 2 feet of snow but the signs of spring are happening here too.
