Simple Roman Salve Regina - the Marian Antiphon for “Ordinary Time” or Time after Pentecost.
About 2014 I taught this over a few lessons and made graded crossword puzzles, learning a chunk of vocabulary each lesson. Old Salve Files with three graded crossword puzzles: Part 1, Part 2, and lastly Part 3.
I also put together a Memrise Course :
Memrise is a handy thing and the free level is fine for learning stuff. For third party memrise courses like mine, you need to log in and add them to your account in a web browser, then they’re available through the app. You can’t find it by searching through the app itself.
Here’s the Spotify playlist:
