We are nearly 7 weeks into our homeschool year. Things are humming right along.
The kids have each completed 25 math lessons, multiple spelling tests, grammar lessons, map tracings, flash card memorizations, and writing assignments.
If you look at it on paper, my kids are getting all of those academic boxes checked off (and with gusto, I might add).
I'm sure many of you are like me - you LOVE that feeling of progressing through a curriculum with success.
It's time to delve into our experiences with Classical Conversations.
I can sum it up very easily: Why did I wait so long to make this decision?
We've always homeschooled in a classically eclectic style (if that makes sense). Our constants have been The Story of The World, First Language Lessons, and Writing With Ease.
My children, however, also love to take off on interest led tangents and at times I've almost considered us almost completely Delight Directed learners.
This year I have two children in Classical Conversations - one in Foundations, and another in Challenge A. It's been a wonderful first 6 weeks of school, and I'm ready to blog about the reason why.
