Ep. 45 - Serving Students with Special Needs in Classical Christian Education

This is Episode 45 of the Consortium Podcast, an academic audio blog of Kepler Education.

In this episode, Dr. Scott Postma is joined by Dr. Gregory Soderberg and his wife, Cynthia, a trained S2C Practitioner, and the director of Spellibrate. Spellibrate is a S2C (Spelling to Communicate) education model that presumes competence in children with special needs while building the skills they need for reliable communication and simultaneously equipping the parents to work with their child.

Because Classical Christian Education focuses on teaching students rather than merely teaching a curriculum, there is much in common between these pedagogical methods of education. In this way, Classical Christian Education is poised to help students with special needs, like Autism and Down's Syndrome.
