From the Ground Up: Teaching Catholic Social Principles in Elementary Schools

This book has three components: 1) An eight-step process that enables the faculty and students to better know, understand and live concepts and principles that enliven the seven themes of Catholic social teaching. Integral to the process is the bishop's 1998 statement, Sharing Catholic Social Teaching: Challenges and Directions. 2) A guide that provides more than 60 samples of outcomes, behavioral objectives and activities for grades K-8. 3) A selected resource for staff development and classroom use.Also available:It's a Catholic School...Let's Keep It Catholic - ISBN 1558333452Ensuring Catholic Identity in Catholic Schools - ISBN 1558332502Our titles help all catholic educators and administrators have the professional resources to meet the highest standards of excellence in Catholic education.
