Charlotte Mason has a manner of teaching children so that all ages can learn at the same time. It's a gentle pleasant and intelligent way. I won't be following her method completely but some things I like. The kids and I are doing nature walks , we go out with our notebooks and collect leaves , flowers, note birds or animals sketch them, tape them in. Them we go home and look them all up and label them in common name, scientific name and anything we like about it. Today was our first go at it..It was super fun. We live near fields full of wildflowers , and vernal pools so they are fun to explore.
We have been entranced with the story of Pecos Bill every night this week, Gabe read the whole thing to us every night. I thought he would tire of it but he really wanted to keep going and loved showing off his many different character voices. We are listening to Paul Bunyan meets Pecos Bill next week.
