That's my word for all you wrote.... Awana, being a people pleaser, big vs small church part, all you shared about your son....I could relate to all of it. <BR/><BR/>I'm new to your blog and will surely be a frequent reader.

We have always used the Charlotte Mason approach for narration and that has worked well. I do really like the chronological history approach of WTM. It has helped me finally develop a good grasp on Ancient History. I call myself an eclectic homeschooler because I like to take what works best for my children from some of the popular methods. Each child is such an individual that I think it is hard for one method of homeschooling alone to meet a child's needs or at least not the needs of all the children in one family. I will be sending friends with questions about WTM and CM to your website.<BR/>Thanks again for the great posts!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07536705718768334766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719499255804821889.post-14494895191818694552009-01-28T00:04:00.000-06:002009-01-28T00:04:00.000-06:00Same history question here.

After reading your posts (and realizing why narrations have been a struggle for my DS, who wants to tell everything) I'm going to adopt a more CM approach to history. But I still like the pure chronological of WTM.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719499255804821889.post-43173525096408738442009-01-27T20:15:00.000-06:002009-01-27T20:15:00.000-06:00I enjoyed reading this post.

Are you looking to ambleside online for direction or sticking with what you are using in a more CM friendly way?<BR/><BR/>Did you drop FLL3 until later?<BR/><BR/>I appreciate your thoughts on narration. I do a kind of WTM / CMish directive and narration is the one area where I've struggled in deciding how to proceed.Emmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12215515093279868058noreply@blogger.com
