After much thought, I have finally decided to jump in & follow AO Yr 1 I love so many of Charlotte Mason's ideas & have implemented them into our homeschool, such as nature study, artist study, & so forth. But, i want to follow the wonderful booklist on AO, so here goes! I am going to begin reading The Original Homeschooling Series by Charlotte Mason slowly, thoughtfully & purposefully. The books have just arrived, so will make a start at the weekend. I have set up a new notebook for myself (oh, how I love to do that!) My notebook has the following sections: Schedules & goals Booklists Circle Time Bible Habbit Training Copywork Phonics Maths French History Geography Poetry Literature Nature Study Art & Handcrafts Music (Folksongs & Hymns) Artist Study Composer Study Narration Legal (homeschooling regs, etc) Each section has relevant notes filed away there. I have joined lots of yahoo groups, which offer wonderful support & lots of resources. Here are the groups I am a member of: Amble Ramble AmbleSide Year1 Ambleside Online AO Member Schedules AO Art Prints AO Narration CharlotteMason UK Our First Week's Schedule: All of the books have not yet arrived. hopefully they will have by the weekend, although I know Aesops Fables wont be here, as it is coming from alibris.co.uk & they take a while. Here is what I have planned out so far: Daily: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bible: 1)Two Blind Men--Matt. 20:30-34 2)Zacchaeus--Luke 19:1-10 3)Parable of Pounds—Luke 19:11-27 4)Moneychangers--Matt. 21:12-16 5)The Fig-Tree--Matt. 21:17-22 6)Authority Challenged--Mat 21:23-27 7)Parable of Two Sons--Matt 21:28-32 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Habit First time obedience ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Circle Time: Prayer. We use the ACTS Acrostic for Prayer: Adoration - Spend time praising the Lord and adoring Him for who he is (Matt. 6:9). Use Scripture to praise Him (see Pss. 103, 145, 150; Rev. 4:8; 5:12-14). Love and cherish His presence and allow Him to work in and through your life (see Matt. 22:32-34). Be still before Him and enjoy His presence (see Ps. 46:10). Use this time to allow God to speak to you through His Word and Spirit (see Pss. 40:1-3; 90:12-17). Praise the Lord by praying scripture or hymns back to Him (see Ps. 84; Rev. 4:8; 5:9-10, 12-13 and "Great is Thy Faithfulness"). Confession - Confession should be a part of your continual walk with Christ (see Matt. 6:9-13). Spend time asking Christ to search your heart for areas that displease Him (see Ps. 139:23-24). Allow God to cleanse your heart of any unconfessed sin (see Ps. 51:10-13). Be sure to spend time confessing and repenting of (turning away from) specific sins (see 1 John 1:9). Accept His forgiveness and cleansing (see Jer. 31:34). Thanksgiving - Giving thanks for all things should be a part of our everyday lives as God's people (see Phil. 4:6-7). This includes thanking God for specific things such as blessings, people, open doors, guidance, etc. Also give thanks for His salvation and the privilege to serve such a wonderful Savior. Thank Him for his goodness, loving-kindness, and faithfulness (see Ps. 100:4-6). Supplication - We are called as believers to intercessory prayer (see Matt. 6:9-13; Luke 18:1; Col. 4:2; 1 Tim. 2:1-4). Thus, we are to come before God on behalf of others (see Heb. 10:19-25; Rev. 1:4-6). Spend time praying for specific people, events, states, countries, missionaries, etc. (see Acts 12:5; Rom. 10:1). In addition, spend time praying for personal needs (see Matt. 6:11-13). Make prayer lists for your time of supplication. Be sure to include a place for answers to be recorded. Recorded answers can become items for praise and thanksgiving.

In simple terms, narration is telling back in your own words what you just read or heard. It’s a wonderful evaluation tool that requires much thinking and assimilating on the student’s part. Narration can be done in many ways; here is a list of suggestions. The narration Dice This is such a wonderful idea!!!! Read an explanation here A template to make one. See a really sweet one here.
