A new edition of a beloved classic! Answering the many requests to bring back her original homeschooling book, Elizabeth Foss has updated Real Learning to let readers know how it all turned out. Mostly, readers will gain insight into what lessons Elizabeth learned and how she would should tweak the very good thing that was the original vision. This book is not about "school at home"--it is about something better. It is about Real Learning.Homeschooling pioneer Charlotte Mason wrote with great wisdom about providing young minds with a living books education. She urged teachers to present great ideas and stand back, allowing students to form relationships with the ideas.Elizabeth Foss carries Miss Mason's philosophy from the ideal to the real. How does the busy home-educating mom balance the various needs of a houseful of children? How does she provide short lessons and free afternoons while ensuring that her children receive a thorough and well-rounded education? Exactly how does she use living books to teach history, geography, literature, and science? How does she incorporate nature study, the arts, and soccer practice? How does she create in her home an atmosphere of sanctity with Christ at its center, an atmosphere of love in which the whole family can grow in holiness day by day?How does she manage all this and still get dinner on the table?With passion and grace, Elizabeth Foss explores these questions and more. Real Learning is a rich and detailed examination of how to let "education" spill into every aspect of your family life. More than a curriculum guide, it is a look at a lifestyle which aims to nourish the whole child, the whold family--heart, soul, and mind.The new edition is all the richer for Elizabeth's thoughts on twenty years of lived experience and reflections from now grown children.
