[quote=Anonymous]My kids are in Catholic school and they have mass once a week. Which were fine with so I don’t feel as guilty about not going to mass as a family more regularly. There is a lot of memorization but that is often connected with presenting or reciting in front of the class, which I’m a fan of. I’ve noticed a focus on critical thinking skills around middle school where some classes are taught almost in a Socratic method. We’ve gotten weekly, sometimes every few days, descriptions of what they’re learning, etc. and suggestions on what to discuss with our kids to reinforce their learning. And frankly, one of my favorite part is the organizational skills taught and expected of them. I don’t nag about getting homework done and/or studying for a test. They just get done. [/quote]
