One of the sagest pieces of PNEU advice I’ve rec One of the sagest pieces of PNEU advice I’ve received is never to announce a “nature walk,” but to give a purpose to going out. “Let’s check the progress on the beaver dam” or “Let’s see if the blackberries are ripe” was always sure to elicit my boys’ excitement. So, if your kids balk at nature walks, try giving a purpose to the going out. Once outdoors, their natural curiosity and nature’s surprises will often lead to enjoyment and learning. @rbaburina . . . . . #naturewalk #getoutdoors #naturestudy #charlottemasonnaturestudy #timeoutside #naturejournalingwithkids #baysmountain #forestschool #charlottemasonapproach #homeschoolinnature
Winnifred Laurence was just doing what she had bee Winnifred Laurence was just doing what she had been trained to do. She had studied at the House of Education under teachers who had known Miss Mason herself. Now she was running her own small school for Forms I and II. Just like she was supposed to. Then suddenly everything changed. One morning a person showed up. The only thing was, this was a little person. She was only four years old. “I shall never forget my own dismay on the first arrival of this minute person,” she recalled. “Whatever does one do with her? I thought; such a contingency had never before come my way. However Miss 4 was perfectly composed, said farewell to her mother without a tremor, and marched into the schoolroom and into our hearts, where she still remains a very definite entity.” Miss Laurence realized that to handle this new crisis she needed to “fall back with relief to the stableness of Miss Mason’s teaching.” Her story of how she expanded her school to include a playroom for little ones is deeply inspiring and informative. Certainly it is required reading for anyone organizing a Charlotte Mason homeschool co-op or school. But the value of Laurence’s story goes further. “Our class is a comfortable size to be run as a large family,” she wrote. That was the brilliance of her plan. Since she modeled her school on a family, her discoveries apply to anyone whose school is, in fact, a family. When you’re doing your formal lessons with your big kids, does a four-year-old ever poke her head in the door? Let Miss Laurence tell you what to do. Listen or read her story at the link. @artmiddlekauff
“I know that all good teachers have some study e “I know that all good teachers have some study each day in preparing for the next day’s work, but besides this study two or three subjects, definitely on you own account. Do not think this is a selfish thing to do, because the advantage does not end with yourself” — Charlotte Mason (from The Story of Charlotte Mason, p. 162) @tessakeath
The book of Ezekiel is filled with images, some di The book of Ezekiel is filled with images, some disturbing, some confusing, and some mysterious. It is filled with symbols, some clear, some opaque, and some convicting. It is filled with intricate descriptions of buildings, a temple, and an altar, and a measurement of land. But then towards the end of the book the reader encounters an image which, to me, can only be described as beautiful. After reading about the rules for entering the vast new temple yet to be seen on earth, and how the gate facing east is to be opened for the prince, we read how Ezekiel saw something truly marvelous: water began to flow from the temple to the east. It became a river! And “Along the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail.” Charlotte Mason’s students read the book of Ezekiel in Forms V and VI. They were told to read the accompanying comments by John R. Dummelow. His statement about the river from the temple is striking: “To Ezekiel this river was not a mere symbol of spiritual refreshment. The perfect kingdom of God still presented itself to him in an earthly form, accompanied by outward fertility and other material blessings.” In her own way, Mason too felt that this was no symbol. She felt that the living water was real. “Ideas emanating from our Lord and Saviour, which are of His essence, are the spiritual meat and drink of His believing people,” she wrote. Back in 2016 I was asked to select three poems by Miss Mason to include in a conference notebook. This poem was the third. Yes, the river from the temple is real, in more ways than one.
