History:
At this point your students should have a good knowledge of how our country was founded and the documents it was based on. Talk to them about the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution. See what they know.
Here’s a great link to Ben Sasse discussing the Supreme Court.
Philosophy:
Discuss with them how looking at our world is a lot like art appreciation. Ask them what they’ve learned about the bigness of God and our tinyness – that this is both terrifying and comforting (Is. 40:26, Mt10:30, Job ch 38- end). We are also focusing on the fact that life is a gift. It is amazing that we are even here. We should be giving thanks for our very lives and not be cranky about small things like homework! 😉 Romans 1:21, Eph:18-21Ask them what was Aquinas’ theory of nature and grace. He had 5 proofs for the existence of God. What was one of them? Do you agree with it?
Shakespeare/Poetry:
Here is an interesting youtube of Easter Wings by Herbert. He reads it and talks about it. Also, you can see both stanzas of the poem here.He really explains the poem well AND he refers to St. Augustine, Latin and Shakespeare. Talk about connecting subjects! Highly recommend you grab a snack and watch this one.
