2016 Workshop Talk | 0:59:05 | All Grade Levels, Literature
Summary
The Great Ideas are those innate ideas that God has created in all of our souls; ideas that resonate with us because they are in line with His truth. Students in our classroom explore Ideas like self-sacrifice and faith & reason through examples in Tolkien, history, the Bible, and in their own lives. In this workshop weÍll discuss how to use the Great Ideas to integrate subjects, inspire students, and impart a love for literature, learning, and the Lord.
