The Commonplace

Ep 06 | The Instruments: Atmosphere (Principle #6)


Listen Later

When we modern moms think about atmosphere in the homeschool, we usually think about the materials. We have a mental image of what the perfect home or homeschool looks like; what kind of stuff covers the walls, table, and floor. It can really feel like things must look a certain way to be done a certain way.

If you don’t believe me, just take a poll of any mom friends you have by asking: What comes to mind when you think of a Charlotte Mason homeschool?

[You know what I’m talking about, friend.]

Today, we’re going to leave behind our wooden manipulatives and botanical wall posters to give the world—and ourselves—a clearer picture of the Mason homeschool atmosphere:

A really good, commonplace family life.
