Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We just bought this and was wondering how you have used these cards.

Thanks for the help!

We used the cards in the morning, 5 new ones each week, going over older ones periodically. We spent maybe 5-10 min./day on them and my son (who was 8 at the time) learned them pretty quickly. I actually had him do them orally while I prepared breakfast. Not really exciting, but he used to say he enjoyed this little review!

God Bless, Joelle

We haven't used them yet but are planning to.

We're actually planning to play Madlibs with them. In conjunction, I plan on using the new Latin Sticker Book by Usborne for more ideas for nouns.

I'll let you know how that goes.

Also, I've wanted to get a second set of cards and make a game of "Memory" out of them. In addition to the definition, the finder of the pair needs to give a word & definition.

Just some ideas...
