Socio-cultural contexts

Levels 5 and 6

The suggested socio-cultural contexts include possible historical, sociological, and cultural content and contexts for learning Latin at each of the banded levels or level of the curriculum.

Possible contexts for levels 5 and 6 might include the ideas and achievements (artefacts) of Roman civilisation, for example:

• architecture;
• the arts (drama, music, visual arts);
• engineering (roading, sanitation, building construction, artillery);
• military strategy and tactics, for example, Caesar’s Gallic campaigns;
• medicine and science;
• law.
