Budding Naturalists: A Charlotte Mason Natural History Club

Budding Naturalists will be based on the Charlotte Mason method of nature study.
Most of our gatherings will be focused on observation and object lessons about special studies, nature walks, and “field work” activities Charlotte speaks of in Volume 1, such as sightseeing, picture painting, bird stalking, out-of-doors geography, etc.
We will also incorporate singing a hymn or folk song, poetry or recitation time, and sharing about conservation ideas. Many of our gatherings will include quiet/reflective observation, nature journal time, group narration time, masterly inactivity or nature games, and hopefully some wildcrafting and nature projects.

This club is just as much for the parent/educator as it is for the children, and there is the expectation that parents will fully participate and enjoy learning alongside the children, and/or incorporate nature study into the rhythm of their lives and homeschool.

For 1st-8th grade, meeting about monthly on Thursday afternoon. Minimal cost, plus required supplies. Registration each summer with club meetings throughout the school year.

High schoolers should reach out to learn about helping lead Budding Naturalists through the Junior Naturalist program.

Foothills LE Collective

Foothills Living Education Collective (FLEC) is a Charlotte Mason homeschool cooperative located in the Clemson, South Carolina area, meeting weekly on Thursdays from August through May. Grounded in Charlotte Mason's principles and a shared commitment to truth, beauty, and goodness, FLEC is a mom-led community where families learn side by side through living books, narration, and a rich variety of subjects. Member families implement Charlotte Mason's methods at home and participate fully in co-op life, including teaching roles and shared care of the community. FLEC welcomes form-aged children (6 and up) as well as preform siblings, and supports families at every stage of their Charlotte Mason journey, "however imperfectly."

This is a Charlotte Mason book club for homeschooling mothers that meets monthly to learn together as we read, thoughtfully discuss Mason’s philosophy, and understand how her principles shape a rich, living education.

Our hope is that we grow in wisdom and encourage one another as we seek to cultivate in ourselves and our children a love for all that is true, good, and beautiful.

This group follows AO's nature study rotation, and we meet bi-weekly at various locations in the Big Bend Florida area. This is a great group to get plugged into at any point in the year. Parents take turns teaching observations lesson, followed by nature journaling and a hike. All ages are welcome. Our group at this point is upper elementary and below but has slowly been aging up.

The Foundations Academy

The Foundations Academy is a K-8 unique educational enrichment experience for homeschooling families. Our programs are deeply rooted in faith and agrarian tradition. We are dedicated to fostering a love for learning in a supportive and nurturing environment. We offer weekly academic programs Monday through Thursday 9am-2:30pm that are centered around developing the whole child, building character, and equipping learners with important life skills. The Charlotte Mason approach permeates throughout the entire foundation of our cooperative. Our programs offer access to agricultural activities, horsemanship, builder's workshop, cooking, and spaces where children, and their families, can learn and grow side by side. We are committed to fostering children's natural curiosity by providing them with immersive, hands-on experiences that promote exploration, investigation, and inquiry about the world. We believe that parents should be able to direct their children's educational plan and actively participate in their child's education. Our homeschool cooperative offers parents a true partnership, where they are able to participate alongside their children in day-to-day activities within the cooperative setting, but also gives them access to parent workshops and resources that support them in their homeschooling and parenting journey. We believe generations flourish when families are supported - while learning and growing together.

Charlotte Mason Community in Clover SC

Putting this post out there in hopes of finding local friends who are interested in supporting one another and cultivating a community of Charlotte Mason Homeschoolers in the Clover area. I am thinking we could start with a few playdates someplace in nature. 🌿
