Dear Parents and Teachers,
In case you couldn’t tell, I have a passion for classical education. I am not an expert on the subject, but rather a mom who has seen wonderful results in her children’s education. I hope that I can excite others into seeing the beauty of following the natural pattern that children learn.
The theory behind this style is that children have a natural ability to memorize many things at a young age. In Junior High, they have a natural tendency to argue, but arguing isn’t always a negative. It can be used to understand subjects better by questioning everything that has been taught. In High School, students have spent their lives learning many facts and now they are able to go more in depth as they prepare for college. I read that classically educated children are able to grasp challenging subjects more easily as they had memorized the foundational information at an early age.
Whether you have a child in traditional schooling, or homeschooling, I believe you will be able to use the memory work from Claritas Classical Academy to lay a solid foundation for your elementary aged students. To be honest, I have learned so much more as an adult by just helping my kids to learn their memory work. ~Laura
