This is Episode 50 of the Horizon Prep Lioncast! Celebrate with us by writing a review on iTunes and letting people know what you enjoy about the podcast! For Episode 50 we're joined by Michelle Castiglione and Dr. Jorge Munoz to talk about the Logic and Rhetoric Science program. For Michelle the best part of being a science teacher is when a student gets that "Aha!" moment and it all comes together for them. For Dr. Munoz the best part is being able to invest in the student and help to build the whole student through discipline, accountability, and responsibility.  Dr. Munoz says "The point is not to break them. The point is to stretch them to their potential" Dr. Jeff Pratt joined us for the second half of the episode to discuss how HP handles the topic of evolution. Dr. Pratt says “We teach about Evolution because Evolution is actually not science. Evolution is a worldview". What did you think of this episode? Who would you like to hear from on the podcast?
