Thanks! We have some cousin’s kids that are using Classical Conversations and I didn’t really like (or maybe understand) the amount of just rote memorization! However, I talked to another family who said that when they traveled to Boston to learn about Revolutionary War, it was amazing to see the memorization work as the kids started connecting everything that they had memorized. He said it was really cool to see.

So if we go that route, we’d probably do the memorization but also try to incorporate it into life experiences early on too.

We are going to a convention on homeschooling in May to hopefully learn more about all of this
