Classical Conversations
We are hitting that season where families are beginning to think about schooling options for next year. Are you considering home schooling your child {ren}?
We would love to share with you how Classical Conversations comes alongside families who are interested in educating their children Classically and with a Biblical worldview.
While there are many benefits of being part of a CC Community – here are two that stand out in my mind today:
Community: meeting weekly with families who are in the same season of life as your family and making many of the same choices for their children. Moms who need encouragement will find other moms who can help share from what we have learned or seek guidance from other moms. Children are encouraged in peer relationships that build confidence in getting in front of their class weekly to speak on a topic, practice their memory work and engage in lively games together.
Simplifies your home educating time: one of my families greatest blessings has been this area. With three children in three different levels, it is beyond simplifying that they are all learning the same memory work each week. We are able to bring this home by all doing the same history, science, Timeline and more. Each child will need their own reading and math help – but what a gift to have our whole family following the same core curriculum at one time.
If you are interested in learning more about Classical Conversations here in Beaufort, here are a couple of ways you can dig deeper:
Attend an Open House: our first Open House for 2014 is scheduled for this Tuesday, January 21. You and your children can come and participate in a morning of CC and experience it for yourself. Please let me know if you are interested in signing up to attend this practical and fun morning.
Come to an Information Meeting: also this week on Thursday January 23 at 6:30pm we will be hosting an Informational Meeting at Shell Point Baptist Church {Parris Island Gateway right across from Bi-Lo} This Thursday, we’ll especially be exploring Essentials {our 4-6th grade writing/grammar program} and Challenge {our 7-12 grade programs.} Everyone is welcome and I will be happy to share about Foundations {age 4-6th grade} at that time as well.
