Hi, we appreciate your patience as we work through the tremendous backlog. The website you provided doesn't show the ISBN. We need a webpage showing the ISBN/ASIN and other book data to validate the info and if available we need it for the cover image. It should be non-bookseller site (Amazon & AbeBooks excepted), so from the publisher, library or another acceptable site: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/..., if you have the book, we can use a scan/photo of your copy for the cover and the page with the publication information (you can upload a scan/photo of your own to the "more photos..." section of your profile (https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new) in the browser, not the app), then copy the link here and a librarian can add it. Make sure you state the source of the photo in the text and that your account settings are public (not private).

* Description:
Are you trying to provide a classical education without having received one yourself? You might know the subject you’re teaching well, but so much of classical education transcends the textbook. What should the classroom, culture, and spirit of the classroom be like? And how can you know you’re doing it well? In this new book from Mandi Gerth, you will find the guidance you need to create a truly classical classroom. Thoroughness and Charm gives specific examples on how shared experiences—not activities—build culture, support the curriculum, and pass on the classical tradition while habituating the students to what is true and good for their souls.
After reading this book, teachers will be able to:
understand the role of culture in education
evaluate their classroom culture
determine what they value most about the curriculum they teach
understand how formative practices shape what students love
build classroom culture by focusing on shared experiences, common language, and embodied values
and use liturgy, prayer, music, poetry, read-alouds, and catechisms to build classroom culture.
