2023 Workshop Talk | 47:45 | All Grade Levels, Teacher & Classroom, Virtue, Character, Discipline
Summary
“If you miss the heart, you miss the gospel.” We as teachers and educators need to be reminded and refocused on the foundation of what we do. These children are not just sponges to soak up the knowledge we bestow upon them, but rather are souls that are being shaped—and the control center of that is the heart. This workshop highlights these foundations, based on Tripp’s book, Shepherding a Child’s Heart, and how we can apply them in the classroom and better partner with the parents.
Speaker
Kajsa Wilkins serves as the North Campus Dean at The Ambrose School in Meridian, Idaho. She attended Logos School in Moscow and graduated from University of Idaho. She and her husband lived in Manhattan where she taught music while Bray performed in Opera and Broadway. Covid lockdowns sent them to Wichita, Kansas where Kajsa served as Director of Academics and Fine Arts. They are thrilled to be back in Idaho where their two teens attend The Ambrose School. Kajsa is eager to continue pursuing and furthering classical Christian education for God’s glory. “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea” (Hab. 2:14).
