A Living Education in Brazil

A Living Education in Brazil

Translated by Tina Schallhorn My name is Lizie Henrique and I live in Brazil. I was born here, so Portuguese is my mother language. When my husband and I opted for homeschooling 4 years ago, I had no idea how to start or how to do it. I searched the Internet for a turn-key curriculum …

On The Teaching Of Poetry To Children

On The Teaching Of Poetry To Children

Editor’s Note, by Amber Johnston Poetry is difficult to define, but in a Parents’ Review article from 1908, M. H. Simpson attempts to do just that while acknowledging that she has yet to encounter a satisfactory description.

Charlotte Mason and the Millennium

Charlotte Mason and the Millennium

The first time I ever spoke at a Charlotte Mason event was the 2008 Living Education Retreat. I thought I did pretty well, but I wasn’t sure I would ever be invited back.

Conference on PNEU Methods

Conference on PNEU Methods

Editor’s Note: In 1917, H.W. Household introduced the Charlotte Mason method to the schools of Gloucestershire County. He started small, with only five county schools adopting Mason’s programmes in the first year. But adoption grew rapidly, so that by 1925, 196 schools were using the method. The PNEU had never before tried to introduce the …

Math for Older Students

Math for Older Students

One autumn afternoon, I (Richele) was in the kitchen when my teen breezed in and grabbed an apple. He paused on his way out the door and said, “Hey, mom, thanks for algebra today.” My voice and my heart trailed after him as I called out, “You’re welcome!” And then I sat for a moment …

Some Experiences of a Pioneer School

Some Experiences of a Pioneer School

Editor’s Note: Emeline Steinthal was with Charlotte Mason at the start of the PNEU in 1887, and three decades later she was still supporting her friend and the movement she started. Steinthal was a sculptor and a painter, and Essex Cholmondeley explains what happened at this time: For many years [Steinthal’s] classes in clay modelling …
