Educating the Whole Child in Catholic Education

By Yanny C. Salom

"Educating the Whole Child in Catholic Education" is my humble contribution to encourage and empower educators to aid in forming a worldview with an integrated approach. This task requires students to be engaged, motivated, supported, and challenged in an environment that responds to the needs of the whole person. This book shows teachers my personal journey in different disciplines, including Religion, Science, STEM, and Spanish with lessons, projects, and methods that are practical, attainable, and oriented to put faith at the center in order to lead souls to Heaven. The book includes nine main ideas that are organized by chapters: Recognizing Students' identityConnecting Our FaithSTEM education and its Value on the Conservation MovementWe are Better TogetherCenter for STEM Education University of Notre DameThe Value of STEM in Food ScienceCreating and Coordinating an Astronomical SocietyTeaching our FaithAn Integrated Approach for Foreign Language Acquisition
This approach emphasizes reaching eternity as the cornerstone of Catholic education, as we help students: Understand that 'freedom' implies the pursuit of what is right, what is real, and what is lovelyDevelop a firm and habitual disposition towards the goodAcknowledge that God has gifted each person with inherent worth and dignityRecognize that the language of our body, as a God-given gift, must speak the truthEngage in a shared life within society working towards the common good
