Want to know more about the Classical Model of education? Follow these helpful links:
This essay by Dorthy Sayers, called The Lost Tools of Learning touched off the modern revival of the Classical model. Ms. Sayers was a member of the Inklings, a writing and philosophy group that included members like JRR Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. She was a brilliant writer and an engaging mind. This essay is well worth wading through. Just keep a dictionary handy for some advanced vocabulary.
You may have read Douglas Wilson's Book The Lost Tools of Learning. Here is an article by the author called Two Questions.
While this piece is not specifically for just those who follow the Classical Model, it is for every home schooler. R.C. Sproul, Jr. wrote this wonderful article about families reading together, called In Praise of the Obvious. I hope you enjoy it and are encouraged to begin, continue, or revive the wonderful habit.
