By Jenny Sockey
I just finished this book last night. It is a good summary of both the Charlotte Mason method of homeschooling and the Classical method. I have used both methods in my school and have seen the similarities myself (though I wasn’t at all successful with the CM method). Mrs. Sockey does a good job of summarizing how to mix the two methods together into a CM Classical education. She has a nice list of resources (takes up half the book!)
If using “Real Books” instead of textbooks sounds interesting to you, if you want to teach your children to love learning and do research for themselves, check this book out.
PS I would follow up this book with “The Well Trained Mind,” “Teaching the Trivium,” “A Charlotte Mason Companion” and “For the Children’s Sake” to give yourself a better understanding of both methods.
Women who get an abortion between the ages of 18 and 30 have twice the risk of breast cancer than women who never have an abortion. Wome...

Thank you so much for commenting! I love to talk to my readers.
I do ask that there be no anonymous commenters, though. If I am brave enough to put my name on this blog, you should be too:-)
Please keep it civil. Remember we are all human and make mistakes, and that since we can't see each other's faces or hear each other's tone of voice, it is very hard to get the emotion in what we are saying each other. Use lots of emoticons! :-) And show grace and love to each other.
