    "Dictation at Living, Loving and Learning"

    Hi Jimmie, I was searching for some dictation info and discovered that the above link on your lens has been deleted.
    Just thought I'd let you know.

    I have heard about Charlotte Manson before...but didn't really know what it was all about. I've just discovered I'm already doing a fair amount of Charlotte Manson! Now I've got to figure out how math fits into the program. I'll go click on one of your links about that. 5 stars for this wonderful lens!

    Yep, this one's great, too! It's been added to my links. :o)

    Jimmie, this is by far the best Charlotte Mason lens I've seen! I am rather new to CM, but a willing student, and I am trying to learn all I can about her so that my children may benefit. Thank you.

    Excellent resource on Charlotte Mason!
  • Jimmie Nov 11, 2008 @ 9:00 pm | delete
    Rhonda,
    Great question. To be perfectly honest, I'd simply read CM's own words. All her works are in the public domain and can be found online (see links above).

    But if you really want a book written by someone else, making her ideas practical, I'd read A Charlotte Mason Companion: Personal Reflections on the Gentle Art of Learning by: Karen Andreola. But all of the books on this lens are highly recommended as good CM starters.
  • Rhonda Clark Nov 11, 2008 @ 8:45 pm | delete
    This is really nice. I'm trying to learn what CM style hsing is about. Okay, for my question. If you were to recommend one book on CM to somebody who doesn't really know what it is all about, which one would it be?.
  • tandemonimom Aug 8, 2008 @ 12:38 pm | delete
    Awesome lens! You put a lot of love into this and it shows! You reminded me of a lot of the best things about CM, things I've been *meaning* to do with my little ones! Thanks, 5stars, faved!

    Someone justr asked about Charlotte Mason on my homeschool list. I can't wait to give her this link!
  • Angela Wilson Feb 21, 2008 @ 2:06 pm | delete
    As a principal of a Charlotte Mason school, I have found that students need instruction in how write narrations. After much searching for an instructional resource on this topic, I discovered nothing. Because I am a writer, I decided to write a book called "My Little Handbook of Written Narrations" for CM students in grades 4-8. Go to Lulu.com to find out more. Just type the name of the book in the search area. I think your child will appreciate the help.

    Jimmie, Why am I just now finding this??!! Awesome resource. I'll be adding it to my blog links soon. Thanks for all your hard work!!
