2025 Workshop Talk | 1:05:53 | All Grade Levels, Academics & Curriculum, Teacher & Classroom, Training & Certification

Summary


All classical teachers desire their students to be active and eager participants in daily learning. Narration is the best and most versatile tool for accomplishing this goal, no matter the subject area or age of the student. Nothing is superior for training attention, maximizing recall, and cultivating joy in the classroom. Therefore, all classical administrators and teachers must be trained in the art of narration. This workshop will lead educators to further their understanding of narration and inspire them to incorporate it into every lesson.

Speaker


Mandi Moore is the campus dean at the Ambrose Bridge Campus. While prayerfully researching education options for her oldest child, Mandi and her husband became convinced that classical Christian education is the most effective method for raising our children to love the Lord whole-heartedly, think deeply from a Biblical worldview, love truth, goodness, and beauty, and share the gospel winsomely. This conviction led them to serve on the founding board of Cross Classical Academy (CCA) in 2010. When her husband accepted a cardiology position in Boise in 2015, the Moores relocated to Idaho, where our two children continued their journey in classical Christian education at The Ambrose School. Mandi has been honored to serve at the Ambrose Bridge Campus since its inception in 2016. Mandi Moore has an MA in physical therapy from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center; a BS multi-disciplinary science degree, Texas Tech University: College of Education; State of Texas secondary education teaching certification: composite science grades 6-12. As a family, we enjoy spending time outdoors: hiking, mountain biking, running, rafting, camping, and skiing, as well as cooking and enjoying time with family and friends. The Moores attend Christ the King Anglican Church in Meridian.
