If your students are reading Caesar's De Bello Gallico (the AP Selections), Ovid's Amores Book 1, Cornelius Nepos' Life of Hannibal, Sulpicius Severus' Life of Saint Martin of Tours, or Lucian's True Histories Book 1, you are in for a treat! This website, hosted by Dickinson College, has commentaries, running vocabulary, and even some videos about these texts. There is also an Aeneid online commentary in the works. This website has been incredibly useful for my students. I even used this website in lieu of a textbook for a very mature AP Latin class as they were reading through Caesar. There are also lists of the most common words in Latin and Greek that can be grouped by declension, conjugation, semantically, etc., which my students found very helpful. There are audio files for all of De Bello Gallico, which some of my auditory learners have found useful. Additionally, there are links to Greek and Latin grammars. There is also a list of electronic older textbooks with sight passages, which I found helpful for AP review and review with my more advanced students.
