On A Schedule/Classical Conversations

Over the past week we have been working so very hard on scheduling and sticking to it! Because of God's grace I have been following the schedule. We have also become involved with Classical Conversations this week which we just LOVE and this program has helped a lot in keeping this schedule!! Classical Conversations is the core of our weekly studies for homeschool. What an answer to prayer!
If you go to the website it has a better and more in depth description of what Classical Conversations is about. It is a supplemental academics program that uses the classical model style of teaching academics and it's one day a week.
The first day we went to visit I knew this what was missing in our homeschool. It truly is "the missing link". I have heard other parents say this...and I must agree.

The kids began last Wednesday. Both Carson and Gavin have presentations this week on Ulysses S. Grant and James Buchanan. All elementary and middle school students must do a presentation weekly or at least every other week-depending on how many students there are in the class.
So we are gearing up to make sure we are ready for it this next week.

We are truly grateful to the Lord for providing such a wonderful program!!

Sounds terrific, Erika! I know that Classical Conversations has been an answer to prayer for a lot of families.
