Academic Fine-Print for Grownups: Using Greek mythology and Socratic philosophy, we will analyze themes, characters, and societal values. Students will gain insight into the historical, cultural, and artistic context of these stories, as well as other historical “urban legends.”
For your Curriculum Records, we will cover:
Historical Context
Critical Thinking
Classic Literature
Philosophy
Ethics
Creative Writing
Dates and Location:
Section A: Ages 8+ will meet Mondays from 10-11am EST, and will run from Monday, May 5, 2025 through Monday, June 16, 2025. (No class on Monday, May 26.) All 6 classes will be held over Zoom.
Class Etiquette: I expect and require gentle, respectful language in my classes, and ask that all students come to class prepared to treat each other with kindness. These classes are a great opportunity for your kiddos to practice social/soft skills, with the underlying perspective that we’re all in this together.
