book discussion

Charlotte, NC

Sophia Society

We are the Sophia Society for the Convivial Study of Pedagogy (with Tea). This book discussion group is for the classical Charlotte Mason mother who takes her work seriously and herself lightly.

We invite you to join us in reading and discussing "Know and Tell: The Art of Narration." Author and homeschool mother Karen Glass shares an immensely practical survey of Mason’s central educative method. Amply illustrated by real-life narrations from students of all ages and abilities, as well as helpful charts and lists, this book is both a wonderful introduction and an invigorating review, to get us ready for a new school year.

May 2025: Chapters 1-5

Charlotte Mason at the Lake

We are a community of home educators who our inspired by the Philosophy of Education laid out by Charlotte Mason. We are all at different places in our homeschool journey but we seek to be a support to families wanting to implement part or the whole of a Charlotte Mason education. We do this by offering continuing education for teachers in our bi monthly study groups. We help carry the teaching burden in our morning co-op. We form community and accountability
as we study nature together in our weekly afternoon Nature Club. We wish to provide oppurtunies for families to learn new skills at our special events. Together we help encourage one another to grow as both educators and parents.

Book Discussion group

Our Book Discussion group meets on a Saturday morning, once a month, at a local coffee shop. We come together to discuss an assigned portion of our current selection, which right now is: Mother Culture by Karen Andreola. We have, over many years, read through other titles such as For the Children’s Sake, A Charlotte Mason Companion, CM volumes: Home Education, Ourselves, Formation of Character… All are welcome! We’re finding this title beneficial for moms at any stage of life— even those “retired” from homeschooling and raising children. There is no cost for the group, but we do ask that you purchase a coffee and/or breakfast from the shop where we meet, as they are kind and gracious hosts and running a small business. The relationships grown from this group are priceless and we are always excited to add another kindred friend!
