Patrick and Fr. Illo talk about the benefits of teaching your children a classical Christian curriculum, and how it will help them with their faith lives.
Caller Comment- I use a classical curriculum for our homeschooling program.
Caller Comment- My children attend a classical curriculum charter school, but it is secular, so I think it is lacking a little bit.
Caller Story- We homeschooled our children with a classical curriculum, and they all went to Thomas Aquinas College, which has a classical curriculum.
Caller Comment- I think secular colleges misuse the term “classical curriculum” and distort it.
Email Story- We can’t afford to send our kids to Catholic schools, so we are doing a classical curriculum at our homeschool miexed with some integration in classrooms.
Caller Question- Do we have to develop our own curricula? Or are there any available that we can use in our homeschool?
Caller Question- Is the classical curriculum related to the Waldorf Education system?
