Book Reviews of The Original Home Schooling Series
Book Review: Essential for Homeschoolers
Summary: 5 Stars
These books are not only great books for any homeschooling parent but just for parents in general. Charlotte Mason emphasizes over and over the importance of treating children as people, not talking down to them, not boring them with lectures but rather trusting them to understand concepts that are presented clearly and concisely, and what a great undertaking it is to raise and teach children so it should not be taken lightly. She offers many suggestions on how to best homeschool them, but also how to train them in good habits. Some other great observances she makes are that outdoor time is essential for children to explore and investigate the world, children should have time to explore and play without too much adult interference - or rather play activities should be child-led, school lessons should be short and varied - children are not bored with the amount of subjects, but the amount of time spent on each subject, children should read or be read to from books that are classics with moral teaching and insight and not dumbed-down to the child level... I could go on and on about the wonderful advice contained in these books. I have a notebook that I use to take notes from the books while I read or to mark any pages that I know I will want to reread. This way I have my notebook to review without searching through all of the books for the idea I want to remember.
