My primary text for learning Latin is Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata by Hans Orberg. I am also using Praxis Grammatica by John Harmar on the kindle app for my phone. Praxis is a 17th century textbook consisting of 600 Latin sentences with English translation, and I'm doing 5 sentences at a time.
Tue 24 Jun 2014 - Finished the pensa and exercitia for chapter one of Familia Romana (the first volume of Lingua Latina). Sentences 1-5 of the Praxis. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Finished all the pensa and exercitia for chapter 2 of Familia Romana. Up to sentence 10 in
Praxis. I am doing these from English to Latin - harder, but a better way to learn I suppose. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Lingua Latina is a nice book. I never heard of Praxis Grammatica but it sounds good also.
You might like the Orbis Pictus ebook, of a 17th century century parallel text: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/28299/28299-h/28299-h.htm There was an audiobook of it on Latinum as well. I'm not sure if it's still available. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Finished chapters 4 and 5 of Familia Romana. From now on I am going to use this book as a reader
and Wheelock's will be my textbook. I want word lists and paradigms. I will also use Dale Grote's Comprehensive Guide to Wheelock's Latin and there are a couple of websites that have quizzes for Wheelock's. University of Victoria Warmenhoven 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Reread the first three chapters of Familia Romana with review of grammar and vocabulary in
College Companion. Completed chapter two of Wheelock's with online quizzes. I feel like I'm getting the best of everything - reading and grammar - by using Wheelock and Orberg.
