Prima: The ETC Newsletter
PRIMA is the newsletter for Excellence Through Classics for the
Elementary and Middle School Levels.  In it you will find articles from Latin,
Greek and Classics teachers around the nation showcasing activities that
they have done.  You will also see examples of student work that other
teachers have provided to share their students' accomplishments.  
Coming soon!  The complete collection of Prima!  Click here for more details.

If you have an article or activity you would like to submit to PRIMA, we
would love to have it. You may contact Michael Posey, ETC Chair, at
chair@etclassics.org.

Submission Guidelines:
  • Approximately 300-500 words in length (longer articles can be
    accommodated with some advance notice)
  • Photographs, illustrations, graphs, tables and charts to accompany
    your article would be greatly appreciated – digital photos that can be
    relayed electronically via an e-mail are preferred!

    current, credible sources for data and opinions.
