Learning how to Live: Series Index

Well, I kept saying that I was going to write a series on becoming a CM teacher, and when I said it, I meant it. I spent a lot of Holy Week sitting in the sun, perfecting my tan {!}, and reading The Story of Charlotte Mason by Essex Cholmondeley.

My first post on this subject was actually a few weeks ago when I wrote my original Learning how to Live. {If you haven’t read it, click on over and do so!} At that time, I was specifically thinking about the Mother’s Education Course. I still think the MEC gives us a lot of insight into what Charlotte Mason thought was a priority when it came to the education of homeschooling moms.

But walking through the pages of Miss Mason’s biography has opened an entire world to me. For this series, I want to look at how Miss Mason continued her own education, how she trained her teachers, how they continued their own education, in addition to the MEC. Once we look at all of that, I think we’ll be ready to consider how we can best self-educate in the context of our modern lives with all its attendant pressures and expectations.

Interspersed with all of this, there are also some guests posts, where real homeschool moms explain how they go about continuing their education in the midst of life’s daily grind.
