Summary


As grammar teachers, our natural giftedness lies in an ability to break the world down into digestible parts for our students. They are, after all, grammar students, and, according to the Trivium, best at collecting, memorizing, and hoarding away vast quantities of information in bits and bites. Memorization is king. Synthesis, we assume, is largely for the dialectic years. Yet if we think so woodenly about the Trivium, we run the risk of leaving the integration of subject matter out of the grammar years, and thereby rob grammar students of seeing Christ, the unifier of all things, as their chief object of wonder. This workshop for 3rd„6th grade teachers will consider practical ways to integrate classroom content so that what is taught proclaims daily to the student that all things hold together in Christ.
