This is our catalog of courses. We will occasionally adjust the course listing to reflect the addition of new courses and the retirement of others.
Join us in this course where we’ll not only learn about the Saints, but also meet them in person. Well, actually, we’ll meet the saints as presented by Mr. Kevin O’Brien. Visit Mr. O’Brien here, https://youtu.be/MsQBWT_XoGA.
Total classes: 6
Prerequisite: None
Suggested grade level: 6th to 8th Grade
Suggested credit: ½ semester credit Literature or Theology
Description
Mr. O’Brien is known for his portrayals of famous saints, both on EWTN’s The Journey Home and in one-man stage shows that he has performed around the world. In this course, Mr. O’Brien will portray a different saint every day! Students will “interview” each saint live in class by asking him questions, based on their study and research. Our Final Project will feature each student portraying his or her favorite saint – either live on webcam, or in a written paper.
