Charlotte Mason Education Method

What is it?

There are volumes of books in which Charlotte Mason herself explained her educational methods. There have been many other books written. To attempt to explain that method in a paragraph seems foolhardy and impossible. So please know that I am only giving you a few highlights.

* "Living books"
* Nature study
* Oral narration
* Copywork
* Short lessons
* Journaling
* Art Appreciation
* Book of Centuries
* Habits

You can read more about these and other aspects of a Charlotte Mason education at the following websites:
