What is the Charlotte Mason Method?
The Charlotte Mason Method is based on the philosophy of the 19th century British educator, Charlotte Mason. It has its foundation in the belief that a child is a whole person who deserves to be educated in a well-rounded way. This method encourages using living books with rich language, studies in nature, art, and music, and habit formation that encourages learning.
