“Tasting Rome”
Talia Chicherio, McLean School, Potomac MD

Talented teacher will share her Latin I unit "Tasting Rome," which explores the cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic aspects of ancient Roman cuisine. She will note how the unit touches on all five categories of the ACTFL World-Readiness Standards. Students love this unit and its connections to the five senses. Alas, your connection will be vicarious until you incorporate the lesson into your own classes. This webinar promises to prepare you to do that!

Talia Chicherio teaches Latin from first year to AP and the humanities elective Greek Culture, Language & Legacy in the Upper School at the McLean School, Potomac. She was recently appointed World Languages Department Chair at McLean where she previously served as founding coordinator of the Community-Oriented Reflective Education Program. Chicherio has also taught middle school Latin, as a classics graduate assistant at the University of Maryland, and seven summers as an instructor in UMd’s Academic Achievement Program for first-generation freshmen. She serves the Classical Association of the Atlantic States as Social Media & Digital Content Coordinator and Regional Director for Maryland. Chicherio is also a member of the National Committee for Latin and Greek. Chicherio has a BA in English and Latin Language and Literature from Oberlin College and a Master of Arts in Classics from the University of Maryland. She undertook the intensive summer program of the American School for Classical Studies in Athens and a semester at the Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies in Rome.
