Product Description

Join us for hours of encouragement and practical help with the Charlotte Mason method!

Friday, March 13 (Doors open at 9:00 A.M.)

  • Session 1—Language Arts: It’s a Natural Progression (9:30–10:45 A.M.)

    Teaching language arts doesn’t have to be complicated. We’ll start off the sessions by helping you to discover what exactly is included in language arts and how the Charlotte Mason Method simply follows the natural progression of learning to use language well. You will gather lots of practical tips for teaching language arts in an enjoyable and simple way—the Charlotte Mason way.

  • Session 2—The Quiet Schooling of Nature (11:00 A.M.–12:00 P.M.)

    We all have a fascinating science resource right outside our doors, but we often overlook it because it is so quiet. In this session you will learn how nature study lays the foundation for science lessons, how to get started, and how to keep a nature notebook, plus fun and simple nature study ideas for the whole family.

  • Lunch Break (12:00–1:30 P.M.)

  • Session 3—Putting It All Together (1:30–3:30 P.M.)

    A wide variety of subjects is essential to spreading the feast for your student. During this practical workshop, you’ll explore how to put it all together to schedule a delightful week of studies, then practice creating a weekly schedule that works for your family.

  • Session 4—Discipleship Is (3:45–5:00 P.M.)

    To finish out this first day, we’ll discuss the three essential elements of discipleship in your home: (1) the atmosphere of your own relationship with the Lord; (2) intentional teaching through spiritual disciplines; (3) pointing out God’s work in everyday life. Plus, you will get all the details on a simple Scripture Memory System that really works!

Saturday, March 14 (Doors open at 9:00 A.M.)

  • Session 5—A Charlotte Mason-Style Morning of Studies (9:30 A.M.–12:30 P.M.)

    Come prepared to witness Charlotte Mason methods in action! You will experience a morning of studies for yourself and see what this style of education actually looks like.

  • Lunch Break (12:30–2:00 P.M.)

  • Session 6—Reflections on a Charlotte Mason Education (2:00–3:00 P.M.)

    After lunch we will talk about what you experienced in the morning of studies, compare Charlotte Mason to other homeschooling styles, and explore some key principles that were evident throughout the morning—ideas that can make a big difference in your own home school!

  • Session 7—Reaching Your Child’s Heart (3:15–4:30 P.M.)

    We will end our time together with a mommy-to-mommy challenge about priorities in your home school. Sonya will share six ways to reach your child’s heart—taken from Elizabeth’s example in Luke 1—and four obstacles that can keep us from reaching the heart. A great wrap-up session to help us remember what is most important!
