Day 4: οἴ μοι!

Salvete!

Another misty day here at the Latin Academy (οἴ μοι!) but we nevertheless persisted as we met in Fox Hall for our second day of Ancient Greek. Lessons today included translating (!!!) a summary, in Greek, of the story of Iphigenia, a movie which we were all very moved by last night. Although the wet fields were unavailable to us during otium verum, we gathered in the common room for card games and reading in what turned into a very relaxed afternoon. Following our free time, we practiced our Ancient Greek some more in Greek drills with our very own Magister Jefferson (the man, the myth, the legend), and learned some more vocabulary, this time describing our families. So don't worry about being forgotten here at GLA, your memories live on!

We then convened in the Multipurpose Room for an arts and crafts lesson to prepare us for our exciting day of visiting architecture in Richmond tomorrow. Magister Cavedo led the sculpting process with his mysterious expertise in the arts, and we unleashed our creativity upon an enormous box of Sculpey. Our creations will be traded amongst each other during our Mercatus convention at the end of our three weeks. We loved receiving your letters (and some odd packages) during epistulae, and ended off the night washing our matching shirts for tomorrow, listening to Olivia's great playlist. 

Signing off for now, your aediles, 
Ananya and Mercury :)
