Classwork Examples
Ad Fontes (to the sources) is one of the core elements of Classical Education. Students struggle to remember things they've consumed from a textbook in a month, let alone years down the road. To give our students wisdom and critical thinking tools that stick, we put them in conversation with primary sources as often as possible. The documents below are examples of the type of work we do in class and at home as we trace God's redemptive plan through human history.
Letter from Iskun-Dagan c. 2150 BC

Students interact with this text in teams to evaluate the nature of the relationship between sedentary and nomadic peoples in the late 3rd millennium BC.
