Good Bye Summer, Hello A New Year of Joyful Learning
heals of the 7th year of studying the work of Nineteenth
Century British Educator, Charlotte Mason.
It's just too cool!
So let me tell you a little of who we are at the Guild.
On the 2nd Thursday of each month our moms come
together at Belmar Panera Bread at 6:30 pm to read and
narrate the writings of Charlotte Mason or books related
to her methods and philosophies. During our time
together we learn, share, and discuss how to implement
Miss Mason's hopes for educating children not for now,
but for a life time.
“The question is not, -- how much does the
youth know? when he has finished his education- but how much does he care? and about
how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds
his feet set? and, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?”
― Charlotte M. Mason, School Education: Developing A Curriculum
We welcome anyone and everyone at any time to join in any time. (we even welcome those far away to join us as
we have a virtual classroom that comes with us to Panera during the meetings, pretty neat!)
This year we have a number of books we will be working through as this year we are going to pick up the pace a bit.
The books are related to Charlotte Mason's philosophies and will greatly enhance your homeschool and dare I say,
your life!
