Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Any favorites from your time(s) studying Ancient Rome? I am preparing a study for two DS (6 and 7)- the 7yo has read quite a bit about Rome and loves it all. The 6yo has not, and is more sensitive.

Thanks.

The book City by David Macaulay which has an accompanying movie that my children loved. The book and movie are about constructing a Roman city.

If your 6 year old is very sensitive, I would avoid the movie, because there is a part that could be a bit scary...definitely preview it. It is part cartoon and part live action.
