What do Science lessons look like once formal schooling begins? Join us on the podcast in todayโ€™s episode as we explore the next step in our children's education and how Science and Nature Study play an integral role for lower elementary students in years one through three.

But what if I'm new to nature study? How can I help my child see when I don't know what to show them?

Take a lesson from your kids! Don't be afraid of messing up; follow their curiosity and you will grow a love of nature together โค๏ธ.

To hear more of our discussion on this topic, tune in to Episode 343 as we look at Science in the Early Years. (Can count as Mom's "early years" too!)

Wondering how to structure outside time with your littles? MOST of their time should be spent in play, exploration, and without parent-guided activity.

However, there are also some ways you can begin to nudge your child to ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ, to ๐˜ธ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ, and to ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜จ๐˜ฉ๐˜ต. Check out Charlotte Mason's recommendations hereโ˜๏ธ. And for more on the subject, read The Out of Door Life of Children section of Volume 1!

โ€œNever be with indoors when you can rightly be withoutโ€ is a common quote we hear in Charlotte Mason circles. But what are we supposed to be doing in all these hours outdoors? In todayโ€™s podcast episode we discuss the invaluable groundwork for Science that is laid in the early years before formal lessons begin.

A frequently stated goal of Charlotte Mason's method is "a full life". And Science is a cornerstone of that fullness, taking up more space on the timetable than any other subject but Language (including the combination of Grammar, Copywork, Dictation, Recitation, Latin, and all the world languages studied!)

How have you seen the study of science and nature accomplish this for yourself or your student(s)?

Does the Charlotte Mason curriculum prepare students to live and work in today's STEM-focused world? Once again, we believe Charlotte Mason was ahead of her time and gives children not just the education they need, but the one they deserve. Join us in this podcast episode to look at the big picture of Science and Nature Study in a Charlotte Mason education.

Welcome back to a new season of A Delectable Education, the podcast that spreads the feast of the Charlotte Mason Method!

If you tuned in last year you know we have been doing a deep dive into each subject on the timetable, using chapter 10 of Mason's 6th Volume as our guide.

Our goal, like Emily said, is to help you have both an in-depth perspective into how each subject is taught, but also to have a birds-eye view, not only of a subject's scope and sequence throughout a child's school years but also how ALL the subjects fit together, complement each other, and build a varied feast for our students.

We made it halfway though, and this year will wrap the series up, going form by form through subjects like Math, Science, Geography, and more!

To listen to our season opener and access this year's reading schedule and other resources mentioned, head to the Episode 341 page! Looking forward to another season together!
