Description

What should the classroom, culture, and spirit of the classroom be like? And how can you know you’re doing it well?

In this new book from Mandi Gerth, you will find the guidance you need to create a truly classical classroom.

Thoroughness and Charm gives specific examples on how shared experiences—not activities—build culture, support the curriculum, and pass on the classical tradition while habituating the students to what is true and good for their souls.

After reading this book, teachers will be able to:

understand the role of culture in education
evaluate their classroom culture
determine what they value most about the curriculum they teach
understand how formative practices shape what students love
build classroom culture by focusing on shared experiences, common language, and embodied values
and use liturgy, prayer, music, poetry, read-alouds, and catechisms to build classroom culture.
