2021 Workshop Talk | 43:33 | All Grade Levels, Academics & Curriculum, Teacher & Classroom, General Classroom, Philosophy

Summary


We’ve all read the books, written the papers, and fully support the mission of classical Christian education, so now what? How do you implement that philosophy in the classroom? This practicum will serve to give teachers the tools they need to bring it down to the classroom level. We will apply the trivium to a unit, show how our biblical worldview permeates every lesson we teach, and give educators some practical tools to use in their classrooms.
