CCMM: Norms & Nobility Chapter 2 Part 1

Join Jennifer Courtney, Marc Hays, and Daniel Shirley for this ongoing discussion of David Hicks’ book Norms & Nobility. In this episode, they look at HOW to teach virtue and define some key terms in the book like “logos” and “mythos.” They discuss questions like “what’s the relationship between words and meaning in the universe?” big questions like “What is virtue?” and “Can virtue be taught?” Along the way, gather some tips for reading and highlighting well and for teaching virtues in your own homeschool.
