Children should learn pictures line by line, group by group, by reading not books but pictures themselves, Charlotte Mason writes. At a time when colored reproductions were non-existent, she required each student in her schools to own their own set of art prints. In this episode of the podcast, we're going to discuss how and why to teach art appreciation in the Charlotte Mason Method. Charlotte Mason, Volume 6 () ( - use code DELECTABLE for 10% off!)
