Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

The site presents teaching examples\u2014for both elementary and secondary classrooms\u2014from a range of subjects: art, cooking, dance, technology, drama, English, environment, geography, history, technology, math, foreign\/second language, music, physical education, health, Bible class and science. (There are also categories titled \u201cteacher,\u201d \u201ctests\u201d and \u201ctopics.\u201d)<\/p>\n

Each example leads off with a question: \u201cWhat if a grammar lesson challenged selfishness?\u201d \u201cWhat if success in math depended upon forgiveness?\u201d \u201cWhat if history could inspire students to love their city?\u201d The site also provides tabs labeled \u201cThe Approach,\u201d \u201cTraining,\u201d \u201cBig Picture,\u201d and \u201cInformation,\u201d where teachers can learn how to apply what they\u2019ve learned in their classrooms.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe website helps teachers ask key questions and make strategic decisions, not only about what to teach but about how to teach,\u201d said Matt Walhout, Calvin\u2019s dean for research and scholarship. \u201cIt relates specific topics like language, history, and math to the overarching Christian principles of faith, hope, and love.\u201d<\/p>\n
