The chapters advance gradually in complexity so that the student gains new vocabulary through the context of words he or she has already become comfortable with. Altogether, it is designed so that the student should be able to read and advance through the book without stopping frequently to look up words. The new words introduced in the reader are used in context, are explained through the illustrations, and are often noted in the margin. Each chapter consists of two to three readings, followed by short sections on grammar highlighting grammatical points that have been used in the reading text, as well as grammar and vocabulary exercises to further solidify the student's grasp of words and usage. The last portion of the book features readings from classical poets and Donatus' Ars Grammatica, a popular Latin school text. The reader is written entirely in Latin, follows the daily life of a Roman family set in the 2nd century A.D., as told through 35 chapters and a 1500-word basic Latin vocabulary. The first portion of the course consists of a reader, Familia Romana, a student manual, Latin exercises, a Latin grammar booklet, and a list of Latin-English vocabulary used in the reader. The publisher assures that after students have completed the second part of the course, they'll be able to read fairly difficult classical texts. Through the second part of the course, students will be reading classical texts by themselves, refine their syntax, and accrue a Latin vocabulary of over 4,000 more words.
