2023 Workshop Talk | 49:00 | Teacher & Classroom, General Classroom, Virtue, Character, Discipline
Summary
As the world searches aimlessly for behavior modification systems, we rest in the joy of training our children in Habits of the Heart. While seeking to cultivate virtue and wisdom, we recognize we are shepherding children, not merely managing classrooms.
Speakers
DeeDee Feeney started Coram Deo Academy’s full-day kindergarten program in 2010,
but she began teaching while still in college. After graduating from Wingate University with
a degree in elementary education, she taught for six years before staying home with her
five children. She aims to establish the building blocks of a good education and instill in
children a love for learning. This is her 11th year at Coram Deo Academy and now serves
as lead teacher.
Julie Kilmer is passionate about equipping teachers and parents in their co-mission of shepherding children’s hearts. She received her undergraduate and graduate degrees in elementary education from Purdue University. Her experiences include serving as a preschool director/teacher, a children’s minister for infants through sixth grade, and an elementary education classroom teacher. Julie has been involved in classical Christian education for fifteen years. She is in her seventh year at Coram Deo Academy in Carmel, Indiana.
