In progress: the making of a hat and bonus water b In progress: the making of a hat and bonus water bottle cover, woven out of tulip poplar and mimosa bark. For the water bottle cover in the last slide, the tulip poplar was dyed with madder and iron. I’ll share completed photos next week.

“Although it is a blessed thing to be a Christia “Although it is a blessed thing to be a Christian, it is not easy,” writes J. R. Dummelow. “The Christian journeys along the narrow way of self-denial discipline and mortification, perhaps of contempt and persecution, but the end of it is life.”

These words would have been read by Charlotte Mason’s students, according to her own account on p. 164 of An Essay Towards a Philosophy of Education: “When pupils are of an age to be in Forms V and VI (from 15 to 18) we find that Dummelow’s One Volume Bible Commentary is of great service… I need only say we find it of very great practical value.”

Writing in 1913, House of Education student Eleanor M. Frost concisely described a lesson as follows:

“… the pupils would read the story in The Gospel History, then compare the accounts of this miracle in St. Matthew, St. Mark, and St. Luke, using the Notes in [Dummelow’s] The One Volume Commentary, next they would read the corresponding poem in Volume II. of The Saviour of the World.”

Each week the Charlotte Mason Poetry team gathers these materials together to facilitate the exact kind of study Miss Frost describes. Today’s poem is about the narrow way. Find the story in The Gospel History, the commentary from Dummelow, and the poem by Miss Mason all in one place — including a recording of the poem by @antonella.f.greco. It’s at the profile link.

I spent yesterday afternoon with @delia_of_the_gre I spent yesterday afternoon with @delia_of_the_greenwood bark class, slipping and processing bark that I’ll weave into a hat. It’s slow, intentional work, which I love. Handwork and the rhythm that goes along with it is a part of who I am. It is steady, familiar, and grounding. 

Charlotte Mason wrote about the value of meaningful work and how it shapes not just skills, but character. I feel that truth under my fingers as I peel and prepare each strip of bark. Honest work, quiet joy.

Do you see many Asian beetles where you live? We h Do you see many Asian beetles where you live? We have lots here in southern Manitoba. One way to differentiate them from ladybugs is that Asian beetles have a black M on the white of their head (well, technically, on their pronotum of their thorax). Whereas regular lady bugs don’t have that M. And, well, Asian beetles often bite, whereas ladybugs don’t tend to be biters.

While we’re at it, what do you call ladybugs? Ladybirds? Other interesting local names?
