You are to choose one theme or concept from the week’s assigned materials (ATTACHED) which you think could be helpful to you in your role as a teacher. In the equivalent of 2 double spaced, 12-pt. Times New Roman pages, explain why you chose this theme or concept, and elaborate on how you might utilize the theme or concept in your teaching. Identifying these “big ideas,” in addition to encouraging critical thinking and reading, will also help you engage in self-reflection prior to and during the formation of your Philosophy of Christian Education. To have effective “big ideas” you must read thorough through your chapter and be a good note taker.

                                       Choose one of the ATTACHED Readings:

Anthony/Benson, Chapter 2 (“Greek Education and Philosophical Thought”) and Chapter 3 (“Roman Education and Philosophical Thought”)
