▼ In this paper, I offer eight lesson plans and one final assessment on Ovid’s Metamorphoses for upper level high school Latin students. The purpose of this curriculum paper is to explore how Latin high school curriculum can be meaningful, contextualized, and standards based. The lesson plans focus on four myths from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, those of Actaeon and Diana, Baucis and Philemon, Niobe, and Ceyx and Alcyone. Each lesson plan includes objectives, standards addressed, procedures, an anticipatory set, materials list, and an explanation of assessment and evaluation. After creating this curriculum and attending two professional conferences, I conclude that lesson plans should grow and change with the teacher and that a purpose driven curriculum, where Latin is contextualized and meaningful, is essential for successful Latin classrooms.
