Recitation - Cue words question

[maggiec]

I am preparing to begin LCI in a few weeks. I understand the instructions give for Lesson Plan II concerning the recitation and cue word "amo". The cue word "o" for Lesson Plan III has me stumped. What is the student expected to recite for "o"?

Thank you for your help.

These are the verb endings that correspond to the personal pronouns: "o, s, t, mus, tis, nt."

HTH!:)

I appreciate your reply, and I hate to admit this, but it doesn't help, yet. Yes, those are the personal endings. Are the endings to be recited ("o", "s", "t", "mus", "tis", "nt" ) when the "o" is listed as a recitation cue word?

Sorry to be so dense.

maggiec,

I'm not exactly sure about this since I've never taught a class with LC (I only used it to teach myself), but I believe the teacher is supposed to start with o and then the class finishes with s, t, mus, tis, nt.

Yes, that's right. I usually say, "Personal pronoun endings; o..." and then my dd says, "o, s, t..."

Have you seen the article on Latin recitation at the MP site? not all of it will apply immediately, but I found it very helpful:
