Charlotte and Drawing

Posted in Charlotte Mason

Charlotte encouraged her students to keep nature notebooks,

with drawings, poems, writings from observations, and pressings.

We could use some help with drawing!

We have been using Sunday nights as our drawing lesson time.

We have used Lee J. Ames Draw 50 series.,

Drawing with Children by Mona Brookes,and this most recent lesson suggested byBarb for Green Hour Challenge #15 :How to Draw Flowers and Plants .

Great work on your flower drawings. Keep it up and your journals will be full of beautiful sketches and memories.

Thanks for the great example.

That is just beautiful Keri! I love the blue picture drawing. Cyan and I have been drawing strawberries lately because ours are finally getting little green berries on them. I have to remember to take her out tomorrow and do an updated drawing. :)

Blessings,

Val

Teaching the Trivium

How can you give your children the tools they need to teach themselves? Long ago students were first taught how to learn. Today, students are taught an encyclopedia of subjects – trivia – but they are not taught the basic skills of learning: to discover, to reason, and to apply.

Classical Christian Education

America's public schools are failing. Douglas Wilson lays much of the blame for this situation on the current idea that schools can educate in a moral vacuum. __________________________
