Just this year, we added to our home school life - Classical Conversations. Actually it is misnamed, it should be Classical Silly Songs that Teach You Ridiculous Quantities of Information. I guess that's a little long, though. So we're learning some Latin, some English grammar rules, skip counting, science, music, art, history, etc. Notice I said "we." I am having to really apply myself to learn as much as I can to help the kiddos review and "get" this stuff. It is not easy! But fun.
I am totally grateful for the program. I think doing it independently would not be *impossible* but just keeping up with the program that has already been put together it challenging. One thing I am really trying to get a handle on is the memorization of the entire of history (Biblical and secular mixed together) from Creation to Modern America.
I found some songs on youtube that we started using. Then my friend SC found this one. Great 80's/90's vibe. So if you hear me humming "We Didn't Start the Fire," I'm probably singing about about the unification of upper and lower Egypt under Pharaoh Menes.
Love, Carra
Merry Christmas 2024!
