Charlotte Mason Philosophy (A Right Brained Education Option)

Classical in nature. Utilizes things like poetry, music and art to enrich the child's mind. Depends mostly on real, classical literature, rather than textbooks.

  • Charlotte Mason - To learn more about Charlotte Mason style of homeschooling, I suggest listening to one of her books. They can be found for Free here in print form. Vol 1 is free on audio here. Ambleside online is free, contains book lists and plans. A Gentle Feast, Simply Charlotte Mason, and A Modern Charlotte mason , Sabbath Mood Homeschool (That one has a great living science) are great options and usually cheaper than boxed sets. A Gentle feast contains complete plans. Simply Charlotte mason is better for piecing together. All of those have book lists that can be purchased I believe.
    • Charlotte Mason Inspired Curriculums -  It is important to know that there is no "Charlotte Mason" Curriculum. Charlotte Mason is a philosophy. The best way to implement her method properly is to read her volumes or listen on audio. (links below)
