PRAXIS – Fall 2013

Praxis, quite simply, is the students of Grace Classical Academy putting into practice [in performance before a live audience] that which they are learning in the classroom.  Each class – yes, even kindergarten! – proudly exhibits its newly-acquired knowledge.  This Fall’s Praxis included recitations about the days of creation, books of the Bible, Psalm 19, history sound-offs and timelines, Roman gods, excerpts from Augustine’s Confessions, and the entirety of Joaquin Miller’s poem Columbus, as well as live demonstrations of Socratic discussion of literature as practiced by GCA’s Logic School students (7 & 8th grades), and a video presentation of Miss Huband’s 5th grade classroom project to discover the identity of World Explorers from various travel trunks.IMG_3167firstIMG_3186 IMG_3198 IMG_3214 IMG_3238 IMG_3239 IMG_3250 IMG_3273 IMG_3275 IMG_3285Watching these students display their knowledge is a beautiful way to start one’s morning!
