One of our ladies in the fellowship I belong to is married to a Lutheran minister who teaches Latin! He said Matthew can take it when he's in the fourth grade (next year) but I think I'll wait till he's a little older...

I just can't get over that Krispy Kreme Hooplah!

Actually.... there's a package out there called, I think, English from the Roots up. It's flashcards with Greek and Latin root words on one side, and their meaning and common English words on the other side. They're really great, since you can learn what words really mean, not just what they're used for, and since learning the root can help you identify the meaning of other words later. Studying roots on my own in middle school helped me develop my English skills. My 9 year old brother does the roots flashcards all the time and enjoys them. You might look at something like that for your guys, before they try to start conjugating words.
