Charlotte Mason Book Discussion, In Vital Harmony

Connect with likeminded mom's as we discuss the book, In Vital Harmony by Karen Glass. We will meet Tuesday, May 23rd & June 6th at 6:30 p.m. in Weaverville, N.C. The goal of the discussion will be to gain a deeper understanding of the philosophy of a Charlotte Mason education for our children and ourselves. She described her approach to education as, “Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, a life.” Members will purchase the book to read and are encouraged to take notes or jot down questions to bring to the discussion. During the meeting, we will take turns sharing our thoughts about the book, what we learned, and how we related to the material.

“It is no arbitrary reward which is attached to the assembling of two or three together; we warm ourselves at each others’ fires, and glow with the heat we get. Let but the heads of two or three families meet together to talk over the bringing up of their children, and the best and wisest parents will go home with new insight, renewed purpose, and warmer zeal. ‘We shall learn by degrees that education is, like religion, a social principle as well as an individual duty; and, meeting on this higher ground, we shall find out the best of one another as we never should in the common intercourse of business or society.'”
Charlotte Mason, editorial note, Parents’ Review, March 1890

You are invited to participate in a bi-weekly gathering of families in the Tuscaloosa County, AL area to study art, handicrafts, poetry, music, folk dance, games, literature including Shakespeare, Spanish, and recitation in the pursuit of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness. We will use the life-giving principles and methods of Charlotte Mason for our lesson plans and activities. The gathering is for mothers and children of all ages to pursue a relational understanding of the things we study. A legal guardian must remain with the enrolling child for the duration of the TBG Co-op. Parents are required to contribute in some way. This could be teaching, assisting, clean-up, nursery duty, etc.
