1. Scholé: Cultivating Restful Learning That Enables Deep Learning That Delights and Sustains Students (provide adequate time for reflection, contemplation and discussion of profound and important ideas)
2. Festina Lente: Make Haste Slowly (master each step rather than rushing through content)
3. Multum Non Multa: Do Fewer Things, But Do Them Well (better to master a few vital ideas than cursorily cover many fragmented details that will be forgotten)
4. Repetito Mater Memoriae: Repetition Is The Mother of Memory and Makes Learning Permanent (lively, regular review and repetition makes learning permanent);
5. Embodied Learning: Rhythms and Routines That Profoundly Teach (the rhythms, practices, traditions and routines we create are just as important for learning as our front-of-the class instruction)
6. Wonder and Curiosity: Modeling Wonder to Cultivate Live-Long Affections for Truth, Goodness and Beauty (we should seek to impart a love for truth, goodness in beauty regularly by modeling our own wonder or love of that which is lovely)
7. Educational Virtues: Cultivating Habits of Learning Necessary for A Student to Be a Student (we should seek to cultivate virtues of love, humility, diligence, constancy and temperance in the lives of students)
8. Docendo, Discimus (By Teaching We Learn): Why Students Must Teach to Master Learning (older students should teach younger students to master material; you don’t know truly know something until you can teach it)
9. Optimus Magister Bonus Liber Est (The Best Teacher Is A Good Book): Why Students Must Study The Masters To Be Truly Educated (the “great teacher” within a book needs a “in the flesh teacher” to bring the author-teacher to life.)
10. Songs, Chants And Jingles: How Singing Delights Students and Makes Learning Permanent (lower school mainly; most important content/skill we wish to create should be taught or reinforced with a song, chant or jingle)
