23 | The Joy of Mathematics in Classical Education

People look at classical education and assume its emphasis on history must mean that STEM skills are kicked to the back burner. But that’s far from the truth. Classical education focuses on critically thinking about the world around you– and our world is filled with math!Veritas Scholars Academy math teachers Mary Wright and Sarah Cartwright (a mother-daughter duo) take on this myth. They discuss how every person can use and appreciate advanced math every day and dive into both the practical and quirky ways they have used math and physics– from watching movies, listening to podcasts, and analyzing the effects of an actual incident where a car smashed through a brick wall right in the middle of math class!Do you want your kids to catch the “I love math and physics” bug? Or maybe even a “Math isn’t as horrible as I thought it was” attitude? Consider signing your student up for a live online class where these two inspirational ladies will lovingly teach them at Veritas Scholars Academy!
