[Klara Rawdanowicz · Rating 5 out of 5]

Truly incredible book about the education of Primary School Children and how to bring them to an understanding of the Catholic Faith. Interweaved with research articles, empirical evidence, scripture passages and quotes from the Catechism. I highly recommend this book to all Catholic educators but also (and especially) any parents hoping to raise their children in the faith. This book will give you practical and helpful insights into the processes and developmental needs involved for every age and how we can harness these to create the best learning environments and faith encounters for them.
Such an amazing book!

Helpful insights on essential topics. Highlighted Montessori method, body, heart, mind, concept -- helpful. Overall, about Catholic education, prob in schools, then something like after school religious ed programming.
